MA/MS in Programme Overview

The Master of Public Health (MPH) is an online programme from the University of Nicosia, delivered through e-learning and distance learning in English over three semesters. Students can choose to study part-time or full-time to fit around work and other commitments, and scholarships are available. The course is framed by the One Health idea that human health, animal health and the environment are connected. It prepares students to deal with present-day public health problems such as pandemics, climate change, forced migration and armed conflict, and it covers protecting and promoting health and preventing disease, for both infectious and non-communicable conditions. Students also learn to recognise environmental threats to population health, to respond to disasters and support recovery and rehabilitation, and to prevent and manage occupational hazards. The programme suits people who want to broaden their management knowledge and strengthen their position in the job market.
