Population Health Sciences gives you a broad and deep understanding of how health and disease are measured and analysed, incorporating research methods, demography, infectious and non-communicable disease and life course epidemiology. World-leading researchers immerse you in the social, economic and demographic distribution of health and disease, and show you how to analyse big data to address health inequalities.


Population health sciences (data science) will emphasise the study of population health using large datasets. The study of data science will provide you with the skills to clean, integrate, and analyse these complex datasets, to understand patterns and trends in health and disease, and inform policy with data-driven insights.


In Year 1 and 2, you gain a thorough understanding of how health and disease are measured and analysed, incorporating research methods, demography, and infectious and non-communicable disease. You receive applied data analysis training in all years, bringing data and theory together in a hands-on learning environment.


In Year 4, you will study alongside students who are studying for an MSc in Population Health and have a choice of modules that reflect advanced topics in this area.
