Mondraya Howard, PhD

Why did you choose the University of Pittsburgh?

I chose the University of Pittsburgh because of its Interdisciplinary program; I liked that there was a variety of research programs to choose from and the collaborative environment. Also, because many of faculty do research that matched my interests. During my interview I felt right at home, Pitt is a wonderful city to live in with with lots of things to do. 

Following her graduation from the University of Pittsburgh, Dr. Howard accepted a position as an APHL-CDC Antimicrobial Resistance Fellow at the Maryland Department of Health Laboratories Administration.
