Location of Kings College London
The Master of Public Heath was introduced at King's in 2002 to satisfy the need for a modern generic public health masters programme aimed at assisting public health professionals to prepare for management and leadership roles. The curriculum was originally based on that of the Faculty of Public Health but it has a stronger emphasis on prevention and the broader determinants of health.
Since its introduction, optional modules have been developed in Toxicology and Health Protection Science to better meet the needs of those working in health protection and environmental health, but most students take the mainstream public health modules.
We also offer MPH students the opportunity to take certain modules from the MSc in Primary Health Care and the MSc in Public Services Policy and Management.
The orientation is towardshigh income countriesand most subjects are taught in a UK context, though we take many students from overseas.
IELTS
You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test.
Most European Universities recognise the IELTS test.
Take testRequirements
Applicants should have a 2nd Class Honours (ie at least moderate to good grades) bachelors degree (or overseas equivalent) or a degree-level professional qualification in an appropriate subject, normally with some experience in the broad field of public health (but this isn’t always necessary). For the Master of Public Health degree, rather than the MSc in Public Health, students should normally be, or have been, employed in a public health agency. Full-time students can satisfy this requirement by undertaking their dissertation while on a short placement with a public health agency. Some full time students from overseas undertake their dissertation placement in their home country.
