Course Description
Develop your understanding of international health issues, systems and programmes and policies. Prepare for a career in international health and develop your knowledge and skills to help achieve international development goals and reduce the burden of diseases borne by people in low and middle-income countries.
Our course is an ideal introduction to international health for students with limited work experience in the sector, looking to work in international health policy, systems or programmes, or to study at PhD level.
An international community
- Learn in an international learning environment, with fellow professionals from a range of countries and areas of expertise
- Work with leading experts in international health
- Tailor your course to your own skills to your own interests with a choice of optional modules.
- Develop the skills and knowledge to build a career within national NGOs and national-level research organisations
At Leeds, you’ll also have the opportunity (dependent on travel restrictions) to take part in a study visit to Geneva, attending workshops and meetings with various health-related UN and other international organisations.
Our course is run by the Nuffield Centre for International Health and Development, based in the Leeds Institute of Health Sciences in the School of Medicine.
