MSc Public Health
On this course, you'll receive instruction in core public health skills including epidemiology, statistics and research methods, as well as having the opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge of a range of topics, including evidence-based public health and 21st Century Global Public Health Challenges. The focus of our curriculum is on the social determinants of health, which makes it unique among the other Greater Manchester universities.
This course aligns to the Public Health Skills and Knowledge Framework (2016). In this regard, the course will equip you with the core skills you'll need to to effectively interpret and understand key areas of health research and how this can be used to inform and drive policy. You'll also learn how to use this insight to inform and drive public health.
During your time with us, you can tap into the expertise and skills of our partners, who include external public health practitioners and research staff from across the University. Whilst the programme does not include a placement, or work experience, students have the opportunity to work on external or internal applied research projects as part of their dissertation.
The University of Salford’s School of Health and Society is an institutional member of the Association of Schools of Public Health in the European Region (ASPHER).
