UofM SPH Alum Returns to SPH to Give Guest Lecture

Friday, 05 December 2025

University of Memphis School of Public Health Alum, Ms. Kaci Foster, recently returned to SPH to give guest lectures to public health students.

Ms. Foster presented in the PUBH 2181: Population Health and Society course, Fall 2025, taught by Dr. Lori M. Ward, PhD. She presented a lecture entitled, “Public Health in Practice: An Introduction to Public Health Opportunities,” where she provided an overview of her career trajectory and discussed emerging trends and essential skills needed in public health.

She also presented a second lecture on food insecurity, which is a part of her current work and a topic dear to her heart. Currently, Ms. Foster serves as a Special Project Coordinator in the Department of Coordinated School Health with Memphis-Shelby County Schools.

We appreciate her sharing her experience and knowledge with our students and we look forward to her returning in the future!
