Frequently asked questions

Why does MPH5100 have three prerequisites (NHS5004, MPH5500, MPH5506)?

MPH5100 integrates concepts from multiple earlier courses: it applies organizational and managerial principles to health service contexts, which requires the foundational public health systems knowledge from MPH5500, the social and behavioral science theories from MPH5506, and the health sciences and public health foundations from NHS5004. Without understanding how public health systems are structured (MPH5500), what behavioral factors affect populations (MPH5506), and the core health sciences competencies (NHS5004), a student in MPH5100 wouldn't have the background needed to meaningfully analyze health problems, design evidence-based interventions, or evaluate organizational effectiveness in public health settings.
