Beschreibung des Programms

The MPH in Global Health is intended to provide candidates with a clear understanding of global health issues and how those issues affect public health policy and practice.

The MPH in Global Health program will offer solid public health training and exposure to global health politics, policies, systems, and practices through didactic teaching sessions, team-based research and presentations, and individual work-based projects or dissertations.

This interdisciplinary course will help students build skills and competencies including communication, teamwork, and project management. Important links will be elucidated between strengthening health systems and key Sustainable Development Goals, such as poverty reduction, gender equity, meaningful work, and sustainable cities. Strategies for achieving universal health coverage and addressing inequity will be reviewed.

Students undertake taught modules over two semesters. Students will be required to submit a dissertation on a pre-approved global health topic. Successful completion of the dissertation and the assessments of the taught modules will lead to the award of the MPH in Global Health.

Applicants are advised to apply as early as possible and ideally no later than 31st July 2023 for courses that commence in late September. If any program receives a high number of applications, the University reserves the right to close the application portal. Notifications to this effect will appear on the Direct Application Portal against the program application page.

Please note a deposit may be required to guarantee a place on the course. Due to high demand, applications may not be considered if the course has reached its maximum class size and will be placed on a waiting list. Please see the deposit terms and conditions for more details.

Global Health Highlights

The first semester is spent learning the general tools of public health, including epidemiology and biostatistics.

World Class Facilities

The Centre for Public Health at Queen's University has for many years hosted one of five UK Clinical Research Collaboration (UKCRC) Public Health Research Centres of Excellence to encourage multidisciplinary working and increase capacity to address complex population-level health issues. The Centre for Public Health also hosts the Northern Ireland Cancer Registry which is responsible for the production of official statistics on cancer in Northern Ireland and provides evidence to help inform decision-making about cancer services. This can be a valuable resource for students interested in Global Health as well.

Student Experience

One of our strengths is a world-renowned interdisciplinary staff with experience in a wide range of public health programs and research both in the UK and in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This is reflected in the content of the core and Global Health curriculum. Students will be taught and mentored by world-class researchers, as well as those with practical field experience as public health practitioners working for NGOs, governments, and multilateral agencies.

You will be taught by public health leaders and practitioners working in a wide range of disciplines. They aim to make effective changes that will benefit the health of underserved populations, often in low-resource areas. The course attracts students from all over the world, further enriching students' experiences.
