Students Shine at Poster Session and Graduation Dinner

The UConn Department of Public Health Sciences recently hosted two unforgettable events celebrating student achievement, research, and leadership.
At the Public Health Poster Session, over 50 MPH students presented impactful research on a wide range of pressing public health issues. From health equity to community engagement, each poster was a testament to the passion and purpose our students bring to the field. The session was a powerful showcase of their dedication to inspiring change through evidence-based solutions.
Later that night, the department gathered for the Public Health Sciences Graduation Dinner. It was a joyful evening filled with music, food, laughter, and well-earned recognition. Graduates were honored for their academic accomplishments and community contributions, with several students receiving awards for their outstanding work. Guests enjoyed performances by program directors, adding a personal touch to the celebration.
The evening also marked a meaningful moment of transition as the department expressed deep gratitude to Dr. David Gregorio for his years of leadership, while warmly welcoming Dr. Stacey Brown as she steps into her new role as Program Director this July.
Congratulations to the Class of 2025, we are so proud of all you have accomplished!
