New curriculum

This master’s programme aims to equip future public health leaders with the skills to drive positive societal transformations in health and well-being across a diverse and globalised Europe. We are introducing a new curriculum to keep up with evolutions in societies and the public health domain.
 
All courses will be revised to provide you with the latest knowledge, skills and tools to develop, implement and monitor evidence-based health policies in multisectoral settings. New application cases will reflect current public health areas of concerns such as workforce, public health protection, digital health, environmental health and supply of innovative health products. Upon graduation, you will be prepared to contribute and lead strategic changes in public health policies from local to global. Traditional course exams will be replaced by programmatic assessment, where feedback for your learning and development is central. Students’ reflective capacity and critical thinking are supported by mentor guidance. Assessment products are compiled in the digital PebblePad portfolio system and inform the award of ECTS.
