Introduction

Programme overview

A person’s right to the highest attainable standard of health has no geographical or social bounds. However, poverty and lack of democratic governance impede many people’s access to this right. In order to abolish health inequalities, global partnerships and the effective spread of knowledge are essential. We must therefore educate future public health experts who have a broad, interdisciplinary perspective and the will to participate in this global effort.

The programme’s focus is cross-disciplinary with a consistent global perspective. The programme provides students with evidence-based knowledge and the skills and tools necessary for conducting research, policy-making and fieldwork.

Course leaders and guest lecturers have substantial experience in a range of disciplinary and geographical contexts and originate from countries such as Sweden, Ghana, Iran, Uganda, and the UK. The diversity and experience of fellow students also contributes to the stimulating learning environment.

As one student expressed it: “The class and teaching are a microcosm of the global context we’ll face in work life.”
