INSPIRE Intern

Greetings, I am Dr. Dipshi Shetty, born in Udupi and brought up in Mumbai. I have completed BAMS from AL.N. RAO Ayurvedic Medical College, Koppa, Karnataka.I have worked in the Covid department as an RMO in Wockhardt Hospitals, Mira Road, Mumbai. I have an interest in traveling, acknowledging people, understanding their views . I’m not a person who will run from difficult situations rather I would look into problems and try coming up with the solution for the same. My aim is to focus more and move forward in the field of research and work toward the solutions for hazardous diseases, bring awareness and help our community, of course with the expertise that I would gain from my professional qualification and experience. My hobbies are listening to music, reading, and dancing.
It is both my profession and passion to help people hence I have opted for the course of Masters in Public Health so as contribute to society in a wider range.

I am currently pursuing my Masters’s in Public health with a specialization in Epidemiology under, Prasanna School of Public Health, MAHE. In the 1st semester have been exposed to basics on biostatistics, Epidemiology, Research methodology, Environmental and Occupational health. During my tenure, we were assigned to work with students of Maastricht University, which gave me an opportunity in working on “Policy analysis” Foundation 1 which involved identifying and analyzing the problems embedded later in summarizing the issue. Foundation II mainly focuses on bringing about an innovative idea and encourages us in Grant proposal writing. This one-semester class provided me with a basic but thorough understanding of the issues faced in health care today.

Fieldwork experience is such an important factor as an Epidemiology that would encourage me in a deeper understanding. I would like to do my internship under your organization which mainly focuses on Surveillance on Communicable and Non-communicable diseases, Data analysis and documentation, Field visits.

I believe that your organization will help me achieve my goals. I am ready to embrace all the obstacles that come with full trust in my way, without discouraging my direction. I hope the selection committee will appreciate my priorities and the inspiration behind the application and will give me a constructive response.
