Emily McDonald

Undergraduate Ambassador

Undergraduate Ambassador, Bachelor of Science in Environmental Health (BSEH)

Hi! My name is Emily McDonald, and I am a fourth-year from Brunswick, GA. I am majoring in Environmental Health Science, with a minor in Genetics. After graduating from UGA, I plan to get my Masters in Genetic Counseling. I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience as a student in the College of Public Health. I chose my major because I have always been passionate about the relationship between the environment and human health. I’ve enjoyed the close-knit community of students and the close connections with professors that I have been able to make with those in the college. A background in public health has allowed me to learn the importance of prioritizing healthy lifestyles and prevention methods in communities. I am so excited to be an ambassador for the college and help guide you as you navigate your journey here at UGA! Please reach out if you have any questions!
