Overview

Bachelor of Advanced Science (Honours) - Public Health

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 is founded on a multidisciplinary understanding of health that 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.

This major provides a broad overview of public health and the critical issues it confronts. 

At the University of Queensland, you’ll 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.
