Course Summary

The essence of public health is to prevent disease, promote health and prolong life. The Master of Public Health (MPH) is an internationally recognised qualification. The training we provide uses whole-system approaches to promote and enhance human health and wellbeing. This can include health promotion and disease prevention. You will develop the knowledge and skills essential for public health research, advocacy and practice. The programme is relevant to both registered health professionals and those working in related sectors, and caters for practice in local and global settings. As a graduate of the programme at York, you will be ready to work in a range of settings. The programme also provides a solid foundation if you wish to take the Part 1 membership examination of the UK Faculty of Public Health.
