With an emphasis on advocacy and equity, you’ll work with individuals, groups, communities and organisations across public and private sectors to engage with meaningful health issues, and become equipped with skills to address global health challenges.

You’ll learn diverse approaches including policy development; data analysis and reporting; media and advocacy; public events; community-based education and preventative interventions to create positive change. These methods may be used to tackle complex global health issues such as infectious diseases, heart disease, cancer and mental health.

You'll engage with 200 hours of industry-relevant experience with local advisory groups, industry groups, local councils, and similar, giving you valuable insight into your future career and allowing you to build your industry networks while studying.
