Public Health - MSc

By developing an interdisciplinary approach to the analysis of health issues and public health practice, you will be able to integrate thinking and practice across many disciplines in order to work to improve or protect the populations’ health and to reduce health inequalities. Public health knowledge, skills and approaches encourage teamwork, multi-agency collaboration and community partnerships as being fundamental to the provision of effective and efficient public health interventions and leadership. These skills are increasingly relevant for the public health workforce who may be located within a variety of settings including the local authority, the NHS, the voluntary or the private sector.

The programme aims to enable you to become a leader and change agent, developing the knowledge and skills needed to work within this new multi-disciplinary public health landscape and to inform and influence decision making processes. The programme modules provide you the tools to expand your comprehension of the evidence base in public health in order to critically evaluate interventions and strategies to improve public health outcomes.
