This Master’s degree will set your foundation for a career in the field, with plenty of independent study and the chance to work in teams that replicate real-world scenarios. Benefit from direct contact with UCL’s expert teaching staff, as well as a diverse network of fellow students. During your year with us, you’ll learn to define and measure the health of populations, analyse and interpret data on health and its determinants, understand the role of socioeconomic and behavioural determinants of health, and appreciate how health systems and public policy impact on health. We’ll also explore and evaluate different interventions that exist to improve population health, such as housing policy, behavioural change programmes, screening programmes and fiscal changes. The built-in optional modules mean you can tailor what you study towards the areas that most interest you. Choose to focus more on health inequalities, health economics, ethnicity, life course determinants of health, or advanced statistical methodology. This course is for you if you are: Interested in population health and its drivers. Passionate about making positive change in the real world. Driven to understand health inequities and champion minorities. Interested in influencing local, national and international health policy. Anyone interested in the broad area of population health with an appropriate academic background that meets our entry requirements is welcome to apply. This programme is also available on a modular (flexible) basis, with a duration of 5 calendar years.
