The Australian National University provides our MPhil candidates with a vibrant research community and outstanding program support. When selecting a research program, an institution's reputation is everything. ANU is one of the world's leading universities, and the smart choice for your research program.
As an MPhil candidate you will work with increased independence, under the direction of a supervisory panel of experts in the field. Your research will make an original and important contribution to human knowledge, research and development.
The Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in Applied Epidemiology, also known as the MAE program, is a 22-month program that trains the public health leaders of the future. Through the MAE program, scholars undertake a work placement, a short period of intensive coursework, and complete a research thesis.
The MAE program is Australia’s only Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP) and is accredited by and part of the international network of Field Training Programs in Epidemiology & Public Health Interventions Network (TEPHINET). The MAE aims to build a highly skilled epidemiology workforce and strengthen capacity to prepare for, protect from, and respond to communicable disease and other health threats in Australia and our region. Graduates of the MAE have gone on to hold senior positions in health departments in Australia and work for international organisations such as the World Health Organization and Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF).
The National Centre for Epidemiology and Population Health has run the MAE program since 1991. The program has been extremely successful, producing hundreds of graduates who have each investigated at least one outbreak, established or evaluated a surveillance system and conducted an impactful epidemiological research study. The MAE is committed to supporting Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander Scholars.
