Brunel University
3 year Doctorate of Public Health at Brunel University
Our innovative DrPH programme combines professional placements in Public
Health Research, Policy and Practice with an advanced taught component.
The course fills a gap in the market for public health courses targeted
at those wishing to find, or further careers in public health. The
doctorate is unique for two reasons - it is cross-disciplinary, with
staff from Social Sciences disciplines, as well as Health Sciences,
involved in the teaching and research, and students will receive a
practical as well as theoretical education in public health, preparing
graduates for leadership in the world of public health, rather than
academia. For further information please see our website.
