Public Health is an interdisciplinary area which aims to prevent disease, prolong life and promote health.

This masters level programme is aimed at graduates and professionals from a range of backgrounds and will develop your knowledge, skills and capabilities in key areas such as health surveillance, intervention, leadership and policy development.
The Master of Public Health (MPH) is a ‘specialised’ Master’s Degree in that it has academic and professional elements, taking an interdisciplinary approach to areas related to public health. Students are taught how to monitor, diagnose and regulate the health concerns of communities through public policies’.
The programme is both for students who want to enter the field of public health and for those already working as a health professional who want to progress their career.
