Graduates of our Public Health masters programme find opportunities in many fields, often securing roles within health or public health settings. A notable percentage pursue further doctoral/PhD studies or work in research and academic positions which we feel reflects the high quality of our research-led teaching.

Recent graduates are employed in the UK as information analysts, senior public health managers, health promotion specialists, university researchers, and public health specialists within local authorities and the NHS. Internationally, our alumni have excelled in roles within governments, health departments, universities, hospitals, and non-governmental organisations. They take on leadership positions, public health program interventions and evaluations, research, and policy-making.
