Divya Bansal is a 4th year student studying Health Promotion & Behavior and Microbiology. She plans to attend medical school next year and become a Pediatrician. She believes that we are here for the purpose of helping out each other, and hence one should always take an extra step to go out and give back to the community.  In her spare time, Divya enjoys reading, dancing, and being with her loved ones.

'Through the College of Public Health, I have realized the importance of prevention and understanding of cultural disparities, and I hope that as a doctor, I am able to aid in improving the quality of our health care system, stated Ms. Bansal.  'I have always believed in “Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do". Hence, I always want to be the girl who tried and failed rather than the one who gave up because of the fear of failing.'
