Our Master of Public Health will give you important foundations in systems thinking, epidemiology, policy and research methods. Learn how to gather, interpret and leverage health data to create a healthier society. Understand the key principles of promotion, protection and prevention. Develop your research skills and learn how to influence our health systems.
You'll gain the skills you need to work in health systems around the world. By developing a global and multidisciplinary approach, you'll gain an understanding of public health that can genuinely influence the wellbeing of individuals, families and communities.
You'll learn:
- Systems thinking - Understand how the systems in our society are intrinsically linked to the health of individual people.
- Epidemiology and biostatistics - Learn how to gather and interpret health data, and improve health outcomes for your community.
- Approaches to public health - Understand how theoretical principles can help you solve public health problems.
