Overview

Master of Public Health

Public health professionals promote population health and well-being in service areas such as food safety, disease control, prevention programs, health promotion and environmental health.

QUT's public health programs are designed for professionals interested in a career in public health, mid-career professionals seeking advancement, and clinicians looking to broaden their range of expertise.

Students in this program obtain core skills in epidemiology and biostatistics and an understanding of contemporary and challenging population health issues. 

You may choose to major in emergency and disaster management; epidemiology and research methods; health promotion; health, safety and environment; or select units from across the major study areas.

If you don't choose any above majors, you can start your application without a major, but you must select one major at the start of your studies.

You may choose to undertake a 48-credit point dissertation or a 24-credit point research project

If you undertake the 24 credit point research project, you will have 24 credit points of electives available.
