Gain a better understanding of bacterial, viral, parasitic and pathological infections in global contexts through the study of infectious diseases. Discover how the basic principles of public health, biostatistics, epidemiology and biology apply to the control of infectious diseases, and build your specialism within the general area of infectious and pathological diseases. The programme is designed to develop academic and practical insights into the biology of infective agents and their interaction with the host and the environment, both in local and global contexts.
Applicants should hold a first or second class honours degree (or equivalent) in a scientific subject (e.g. biology, medicine, nursing, dentistry, veterinary science, pharmacy) or a related discipline with appropriate training. Applicants who do not meet these requirements may still be admitted at LSHTMs discretion based on academic background, work experience, and references.
