MPH or MSc in Biology?

[Unsurestudent2k15]

Hi Everyone,

I am considering a applying for a masters in public health next fall. I think this is the type of degree I should do next but am unsure.  

What are the kinds of jobs that it realistically leads too? 

I currently hold a MBA and an undergrad degree in science.  I am looking to work in the health care field as a manager/ director that may involve either using or presenting  health research to the general public.  

I am getting mixed reviews on what I should do next. Some say MPH and some say a MSc in Biology would be better for being a manager.  

 
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

My guess is that you would be looking for a degree so that your employees feel they can relate to their manager, and that you are able to speak their 'language' right? Then I would say MPH, as I think you would benefit more from applied knowledge rather than core knowledge, especially in health care.
