With the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, managing public health is a skill that is currently relevant to all healthcare professionals and non-healthcare graduates working in the healthcare sector. At IMU, the Master of Science in Public Health (MScPH) programme facilitates the building of a solid foundation in good leadership that focuses on improving the health of the whole population with emphasis on the prevention of disease within a community. It involves training in effective communication, critical thinking, attention to detail, development of self-control and confidence in handling public health issues including disasters and pandemics.
