Introduction
Our first-of-its-kind, completely online Master of Public Health programme aims to empower health professionals to analyse, strategise and offer solutions to public health challenges in South Africa and around the globe. You will study environmental health, occupational health and epidemiological threats and risks.
Our curriculum is comparable with programmes offered at internationally accredited schools of public health but with a curriculum tailored to South African and sub-Saharan legislation, health imperatives and economic environment. Completion of this programme will enable you to progress to a doctorate in a health-related field of study.
This programme requires no travel and no face-to-face sessions, allowing you to earn credits at your own pace while fulfilling personal and professional obligations. Complete the programme in a minimum of two years.
