MSc in global health and public policy
MSc in health inequalities and public policy
MSc in health systems and public policy
MSc in global health and anthropology
The MSc programmes offered by CIPHP for 2008-09 have a unique focus on
public health policy in the context of widening global and domestic health
inequalities.
The programmes provide students with an understanding of the significance
of global changes such as social and economic inequalities and the promotion
of free trade and economic growth by governments and international organisations.
They equip them with the skills and knowledge to conduct public health
research and advocacy in the new global context.
Great importance is placed on research methods and analytic techniques
for practical application or for further research. The programmes are designed
to be accessible to students from diverse backgrounds – including public
health practitioners, policy makers, researchers, and NGO staff, and graduates
in social science, science, medicine, nursing, and other related disciplines.
They provide for specialisation in policy areas relevant to both UK and
international interests.
The programmes take one year full-time and up to three years part-time.
Possibilities exist for distance and modular learning.
