USC has one of the top Schools of Public Health in the country along with a new facility. I don't know if academia has any interest for you, but that is an option along with all of the other research facilities at USC. Columbia is also home to the USC Medical School and 7 hospitals and the SC Department of Health and Environmental Control, so there should be no shortage of job opportunities for you. As far as your husband, it sounds like there are a lot of fields he could fit into. The unemployment rate in the Columbia area is very low. Good luck on your search.
