The purpose of the Masters degree in Epidemiology program is to develop a group of professionals who can support communities to gain voice in the planning process. The program includes skills to conduct and train others in methods for evidence-based planning. A combination of supervised academic work, field experience and training of others is required, with a thesis based on a scientific article published in a peer-reviewed, indexed journal. The doctoral program (due to re-start) aims to qualify a smaller number of professionals with the ability to design and negotiate entire projects and programs and take responsibility for bringing these to successful completion. Candidates must complete advanced course work, pass a doctoral examination, have several years of field experience, be fluent in English and another working language, and produce at least three articles published in indexed, peer-reviewed scientific journals.
