A PhD in Health Policy gives you the opportunity to pursue your particular personal or professional research interests in this diverse field. We have specific expertise in finance and service contracting, policy implementation studies, quality systems and public involvement. Over the course of your studies, you will develop and enhance transferable skills such as problem-solving, project management, and critical thinking that are valued in any professional setting.
