The Master of Public Health program offers a flexible and comprehensive curriculum designed to address today’s public health challenges. Students complete six mandatory courses (60 ECTS) in core areas such as public health, global health, health economics and policy, research methods, and sustainable innovation.

You also have the option to join exchange programs, which can replace the stream. The last 30 ECTS are dedicated to the Master’s thesis, allowing you to plan, develop, and present a scientific project in public health. The thesis can be based on empirical data, a literature review, or a theoretical project.
