Course Overview

A MPH is an internationally recognized qualification opening up many employment opportunities throughout the world.

The curriculum for the MPH at Queen’s is aligned to the syllabus for the professional exams for the UK Faculty of Public Health.

The MPH is designed to introduce students to:

The 'science' of public health practice: a robust, systematic, and evidence-based approach to define and understand population health issues and problems.

The 'art' of public health practice - interpersonal and organizational skills to work in partnership with others; influence decisions; support implementation of policy, programs, or interventions; and effect real change. It aims to identify optimal solutions for health gain within available resources.
