Course description

Our distance learning Master of Public Health (Environment and Public Health) course meets the training needs of health professionals around the world who are interested in a career in public health or those seeking new skills in this area.

Contemporary public health practice requires practitioners to be adaptable and flexible, with a broad experience of a range of subject areas.

This course will equip you with:

the skills and knowledge to apply to public health concerns at local, national and international level; the ability to apply relevant theory and scientific principles to practical situations; the capability of meeting core-competencies in public health; specialist knowledge recognising the importance of the natural environment in public health.

PGCert, PGDip and MPH awards are available.

Teaching and learning

Most of our courses are delivered completely online. A learning structure with a recommended pace is in place throughout the unit, with specific deadlines for all summative assessments.

Some course units require your participation throughout, and some of the optional units are blended, which require a mandatory face-to-face element. Please check whether your chosen course unit includes any face-to-face teaching days, as this is clearly stated in the Course Unit Overview.

If you are unable to attend a face-to-face component due to mitigating circumstances, you may be permitted to repeat this unit in a subsequent year. However, if you are unable to attend the face-to-face sessions, please do not choose one of the blended units.

Coursework and assessment

You will use a number of assessed and non-assessed activities to develop key skills and expand your knowledge base. There are no written exams; assessment is based on assignments and other activities such as moderated discussion boards and group work.

Career opportunities

A career in public health offers a diverse range of opportunities in a variety of settings. The challenges our environment faces, such as the climate and ecological crises, have significant impacts on public health and are too important to ignore. These issues are relevant to everyone, world over, especially public health professionals who have to prevent, or mitigate, the health consequences. The competences required of public health professionals align with the concerns regarding the climate and ecological crises. This course provides the knowledge and skills necessary to understand those challenges and integrate these vital issues into all public health practices and research.

Most of our students complete the course part-time while working in a wide variety of jobs and sectors, and many (eg GPs, hospital doctors, health promotion staff, managers and researchers) take the course to give them public health skills and expertise to apply within their own profession and/or setting.
