Make a positive difference in people's lives by learning to measure, plan, manage and evaluate health programs and services to prevent illness and promote good health within communities.
Public health allows you to explore and examine the basis of disease and well-being by considering human behaviour, physical environments, socio-economic and cultural factors, and healthcare management systems.
At The University of Queensland’s program, you will examine the foundational disciplines of public health, including epidemiology, biostatistics, health systems, environmental health and social sciences.
Studying public health can lead to various roles within public and global health, health research or public health policy.
This major is delivered at Herston and St Lucia.
