MPH Public Health

The Bradford MPH is designed for those looking to move into public health, policy or community development at a senior level, and is suitable for candidates from diverse undergraduate study backgrounds and/or professional experience.

The programme develops students into future healthcare leaders who understand health policy, community change, human behaviour change, or health service design.

The programme places emphasis on leadership and strategic thinking, developed through comprehensive qualitative and quantitative research, analysis and evaluation. It is tailored to the demographic and epidemiological challenges of contemporary urban societies - the diseases of affluence and ageing, and the marginalized and vulnerable populations produced by these kinds of settings.

The Bradford MPH provides training in public policy, health care practice development, epidemiology, and community development that focuses on skills for change, making it a must-have qualification for those wishing to address the contemporary challenges of public health or undertake research in the public health field.

The following specialisms are available:

• Global Perspective on Quality Health Care
• Leading and Managing Change in Health Care
• Improvement Management of Global Pharmaceutical Supplies
• Working with Communities
