Are you keen to engage with contemporary issues, and global themes and challenges? The Covid-19 pandemic has swung an international spotlight on the importance of solving critical global health challenges. Our dynamic, interdisciplinary course draws on a range of academic fields of study in the social and clinical sciences to understand the policy and practice of global health to meet such challenges.

The programme provides the opportunity to develop the skills and knowledge which are transferable for applications for careers working with global communities both nationally and internationally.

On this 1-year full-time or 2-years part-time course, you study a range of modules based on relevant theoretical topics and practical experiences. Mandatory level 7 modules include Defining Concepts, Determinants of Health, Project Planning for Sustainable Global Health, Research and Evaluation in Global Health, and a Dissertation.

As you progress through the course, programme content moves from the broad issues of global health to become more focused on a topic that you have chosen to explore in depth through project planning and fieldwork. Assessment is through written assignments on module topics and a final semester/year project dissertation.

Your learning takes place online through a combination of lectures and seminars, small group work, and guided independent study. You will have a supervisor/tutor to support you with your studies and you are encouraged to continue to gain practical experience in global health either in the UK or abroad.

You are likely to be a professional practitioner in health care, social care and well-being currently in employment related to global health project work or engaged as a volunteer in this area. You will be encouraged (although you are not required) to keep up these arrangements as far as possible during your studies.
