Our MPH with a specialised track in International Public Health, designed by world leading experts in the public health sector, is an in-depth study of the public health issues that exist in a variety of international settings.A comprehensive analysis of infectious disease, nutrition, environmental health, health infrastructure, and health project management in an international context, particularly focusing on health issues in low income countries is also a major component of this track, as is the intervention strategies which cover worldwide health.
The core modules cover epidemiology and qualitative research methods, including the application of appropriate study designs, their critical appraisal and the essential principles and procedures for ethical practice. You will then specialise by studying Public Health Issues in Low Income Countries, International Disaster Management, and Policy and Programme Challenges in Low Income Countries.
In addition to the subject matter knowledge you gain, you will develop additional cognitive, team, communication, research, ICT, numeracy and project planning skills that are eminently transferable within the sector. You will complete your programme with a dissertation based on your own original public health research relevant to this area of specialisation.
As an MPH student you will gain a broad and international education in the science and art of preventing disease, developing the skills required for the wide and increasing variety of opportunities in public health.
