The Centre for Primary Care and Public Health is recruiting students for September 2013 for its highly successful multidisciplinary suite of MSc programmes, headed by Professors Trish Greenhalgh and Allyson Pollock:

MSc global public health and policy
MSc international primary health care
MSc health systems and global policy

Underpinned by a commitment to principles of social justice and fairness, these MSc programmes will provide students with an understanding of the significance of the current global challenges for health care and public health and will offer a multidisciplinary focus on global public health and primary care in a time of increasing health inequalities. Through the knowledge and analytic skills they have gained, students will enhance their ability to plan and develop services and advocate for them, and increase their effectiveness as change agents delivering health care and public services.

Topics include

  • Health inequalities and social determinants of health
  • Globalisation and health care reform
  • Primary health care: theory and practice
  • Public health, international law and governance
  • Migration, culture, and health
  • Globalisation and contemporary medical ethics

Based in Whitechapel in the heart of London’s East End, the Centre for Primary Care and Public Health brings together some of the UK’s leading researchers in public policy and community based health sciences who share a commitment to reducing health inequalities and promoting universal health care in and beyond the UK.

With strong links to NHS, local authorities, and other organisations in the East End, and with a programme of international research with which students can engage, the Centre combines the local and the global in a stimulating and challenging research and teaching environment.
