Association of Public Health Infectious Disease Students

The Association of Public Health Infectious Disease Students (APHIDS) is a student group representing graduate students within the Infectious Diseases & Vaccinology program in the School of Public Health. The primary goals of APHIDS are to foster a sense of community in the IDV cohorts, serve as student advocates, and provide peer support. To meet these goals, APHIDS holds social events, establishes a mentoring system, and provides professional development resources to support IDV students in their academic and professional endeavors. In addition, APHIDS holds monthly meetings where students can discuss classes, talk about current events, share insights about SPH programs or just socialize.
