Master of International Public Health/Master of Health Management (Extension)

The Master International Public Health / Master of Health Management (Extension) dual program is an innovative approach to postgraduate health education enabling candidates to specialise in both public health and health management and develop research skills in health management. Graduates of the dual MIPH / MHM(Extn) program are equipped with specialised professional knowledge and skills to work internationally in health departments, with non-government organisations, and with international and bi-lateral aid agencies. The program cultivates sophisticated knowledge and skills in public health and health management that can be applied to a broad range of highly complex population health issues in international settings including resource constrained, middle income and more developed countries. Graduates acquire a complex body of multidisciplinary knowledge of global public health and health management including epidemiology, biostatistics, social determinants of health, health promotion, population health research methods, leadership and workforce management, strategic planning and change management, quality and safety improvement, and health program and policy design, implementation and evaluation. The program fosters judgment-ready critically eflexive practitioners who are able to manage and improve health service systems and outcomes and contribute to improving public health outcomes in diverse settings drawing on a global health perspective.
