Everything SMU offers appeals to me, but a few aspects especially stand out.

As someone who’s been lucky enough to travel the globe, I understand the need for a strong health sector. Seeing the difference in the livelihood of people around the world, the differences in rich and poor, children and adults, is an eye-opening experience.
