Interested in what our different concentrations have to offer? In this post in our series about CIPA concentrations, we hear from Zach German. Zach is a first year CIPA fellow focusing in Social Policy, with particular interest in health policy.

Life is a series of choices. This reality becomes painfully clear when you’re faced with making educational decisions: what do you want to do with your life?
