Overview

Interactive lectures are delivered by academics, practitioners and advocates from the frontlines of public health.

Each module of the Public Health degree offered at University of Sussex is delivered within an intensive immersive week, with ‘breaks’ between modules during which time students focus on seminars, tutorials, assignments, research and extracurricular activities. This structure also works very well for part time, working students.

Career Opportunities

Our graduates are currently working in Local Authorities, Public Health England, Health Education England, national and international universities and in a range of national and international public and non-governmental organisations.

We work closely with leading figures in Public Health to develop employment support and employability workshops. These workshops have been finetuned following student feedback to ensure they are relevant and impactful. The skills gained through these workshops and work opportunities that arise fit both local and overseas students, leading the way to new connections and targeted individual support to secure good jobs.
