Key facts

This MPH course draws on UK government policy directives in public health - Fit for the Future: Public Health People (2016), NHS Long Term Plan (2019) and The Future of Health and Care: Working together to improve health and social care for all (2021).

This award is mapped against the UK Public Health Register (UKPHR) specialist register standards so you can go on to use the award to fulfil part of the requirements for registration as a specialist practitioner in the future.

The UKPHR provides public protection by ensuring that only competent public health professionals are registered and that high standards of practice are maintained.

The UKPHR is one of 3 bodies that registers public health practitioners to work at consultant or director level (the other two being the Faculty of Public Health (FPH) and the General Medical Council).
