What you'll study

The MPH offers three specialisations: Community Health Sciences, Management of Infectious Diseases and Food Safety. Coursework and activities concentrate on monitoring and preventing disease, promoting healthy lifestyles through education and community engagement, and implementing initiatives to reduce disease and disability across populations. The programme structure supports working students by offering evening classes and flexible delivery options.
