Overview

The Global Public Health (Online) course from Queen Mary University of London is a wide-ranging post-graduate programme that explores social, political, economic and ecological determinants of health, with a focus on health policy analysis.

The determinants of health and their consequences for health improvement and health inequalities are an essential part of the work of public health practitioners when dealing with health issues at the population level. Governments, researchers, and the public are increasingly aware of health inequity and the need for health systems to provide and promote health for all.

Career paths

After graduating, you will be well-equipped to explore a career in health policy and health service delivery at local, national, and international levels – in governmental and international bodies as well as NGOs.

You will hold the skills and knowledge needed to work effectively in multi-disciplinary teams engaged in health improvement.

Since research and epistemology will be integrated into the modules you will learn, you could also get the opportunity to pursue further academic development in the form of a PhD.
