Overview
Students are instructed in the development, use and critical evaluation of conceptual models, evidence, methods of analysis, and practical interventions.
Education
The Public Health (Distance Learning) programme at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine provides students with the knowledge and skills to address diverse public health issues in low, middle and high income settings. The varied curriculum allows students to opt for a broad range of knowledge or to concentrate on specialised areas.
The programme offers four alternative streams; the general Public Health stream and three specialist streams: Environment and Health; Health Promotion and Health Services Management.
Students on this programme come from diverse backgrounds. Many are health professionals working at a service or policy level, while others wish to obtain public health skills that they can apply to their work in development, community services, government, research or teaching.
