Course Details

The Master of Public Health will introduce you to, and develop your understanding of, the social-ecological model of health that forms the basis of community-based and community-led public health. This approach reflects contemporary trends in public health and provides the basis of innovative interventions for social change. You will explore the origins and evolution of public health and the underlying principles and concepts of community-based and community-led public health. These include complex adaptive systems thinking, social and environmental determinants of health, epidemiology and statistics, communicable diseases, social justice, and partnership development. You will also gain experience in applying these principles and concepts in practical ways so you can readily take your learning into real world situations using a strengths-based or disease prevention approach. You will have the opportunity to shape this degree to your own needs by selecting relevant electives.
