The on-campus Master of Public Health (MPH) is a comprehensive and dynamic course designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills and practical experience needed to excel in the field of public health. You’ll study both local and global public health contexts, addressing current issues and challenges, with sustainability as a core aspect. The course has been mapped to both the UK Faculty of Public Health Skills and Knowledge Framework and the Agency for Public Health Education Accreditation (APHEA) curriculum. You’ll take part in practical placements, internships, and collaborative projects as well as practical workshops, guest lectures and networking. In addition to expert academics and public health practitioners from a range of public health practices, you’ll be taught by and work with the researchers at the campus-based Institute for Social Marketing and Health (ISMH), a world-leading centre for research in marketing, behaviour change and public policy with over 40 years of research experience. Engaging with both local and global public health contexts, this course is tailored to address contemporary public health challenges and foster a holistic understanding of population health. Our on-campus MPH is set within a broader understanding of sustainability relating to both the healthcare sector directly and the wider determinants of health and interventions. You’ll have the opportunity to choose a 20 credit optional module in your Spring semester, including Public Health Placement (MPHP006) or other relevant modules from the University’s postgraduate suite of modules. The course culminates in your Masters Dissertation (Health) where you’ll undertake a significant piece of independent study using established methods of research enquiry to explore a public health topic aligned to your area of interest.
