# Concentration Directors

Students in each concentration are strongly encouraged to contact their Concentration Director early on and regularly throughout their time at ISMMS. Concentration Directors are an important resource, and can provide information and advice regarding elective courses, Applied Practice Experience, and Culminating Experience opportunities, proposals, competencies, and development, as well as information on the public health profession.
