Study Details: 30 months (part-time and online)
The MPH is internationally respected for its multidisciplinary focus and commitment to the World Health Organization’s (WHO) “Health for All” principles. It is an essential programme if you are working in any area of public health: governmental organisations, health services management, policy and planning, housing, transport, or for community groups and NGOs.
Public health aims to tackle the wider determinants of health. As a multidisciplinary subject, our students come from a wide variety of backgrounds, including medicine, nursing, pharmacy, occupational therapy, health services, health service management, environmental health and graduates with a background in the natural sciences, social sciences or humanities subjects.
With its modular format, the programme can be studied to postgraduate certificate, postgraduate diploma or master’s levels within the University. Our online students study part-time over two to six years and integrate the programme with their jobs and CPD.
On completion of the programme, the student should have a foundation in the science and art of public health, including an in-depth knowledge of the concepts of health and disease and factors, which may affect these.
The resulting knowledge, skills, and insight should enable students to integrate and apply public health principles and theories through collaboration with stakeholders in a variety of settings.
