Key Course Facts

Course Description

On this MSc, you’ll study the social and political issues influencing sexual and reproductive health, with a focus on low- and middle-income countries. You will work on integrating theory and practice, developing critical thinking skills and widening your perspective on current and historical sexual and reproductive health issues.

This course will equip you to work at a senior level to promote the sexual and reproductive health and social wellbeing of people, especially those living in low- and middle-income countries, through the development of effective, contextualised sexual and reproductive health policies, services and interventions.

Assessment is continuous and incorporates assignments, action plans, projects and presentations. For your dissertation projects, you can chose to do a desk study involving a literature review or conduct primary data collection in collaboration with national or international organisations working in health and development
