Master of Science - Public Health

The Public Health MSc focuses on wider determinants of health and wellbeing, and is ideal for anyone interested in working to improve population health and health promotion, whether within the NHS, community organisations, government or related agencies. Based on the view that public health strategies reach far beyond the healthcare system, this course provides a comprehensive coverage of the twenty-first century complexities of both national and international public health.

The Public Health course will develop students' critical understanding of the impact of social determinants of health on populations and the range of political, social, economic, environmental and health interventions that might improve population health.

Students will evaluate key principles and concepts that underpin public health developments and interpret evidence crucial for decision-making and problem-solving in public health policy and practice. Students will also understand the ethical dimensions of public health and develop critical reflective abilities and moral responsibility for population health.

A master's degree in public health will provide students with the multi-disciplinary learning and teaching environment that will help them become effective public health professionals and leaders capable of examining situations from multiple perspectives, participating in pro-social action and improving awareness of their own and other cultures to a high level of global consciousness.
