What are the career outcomes after this course?

This course is aimed at all people who want to improve health services and evaluate their impact. The skills and practical experience gained in this MSc will enable students to excel in sectors ranging from ministries of health, policymaking, and academia, to multi-lateral, bilateral and non-governmental organisations.

Potential next steps include applying for a DPhil, such as the HSC/ NDM Centre for Global Health Research’s DPhil in Clinical Medicine (which is more broad than just clinical medicine), internships (we can help facilitate these, but are unable to guarantee an internship), and jobs working in a variety of industries. 

This course focuses on building a specific skillset for employability, including grant-writing, teamwork, communication, and conference organisation and presentation. This course focuses on a particular set of knowledge and skills to identify and understand health service challenges and design robust interventions in response, while providing practical skills in implementing programmes and a nuanced approach to evaluation. The narrower scope, deeper dive into the content, and a focus on building skills to specifically improve and evaluate health services make this course different from a broader degree like an MPH and provides added value for those already working in health services or the field of improvement and evaluation.
