Overview

The Master of Public Health at Flinders University is founded on a commitment to the advancement of quality and integrity in multidisciplinary practice, and principles of equity, inclusiveness, accountability and community participation.

This program creates opportunities for health professionals to examine workplace issues and to formulate new ways of addressing them and putting them into practice. The teaching and learning focuses primarily on helping health professionals change their practice in light of new insights. Topic assignments may be related to workplace issues and problems.

Program

The program aims to provide you with the knowledge and skills to incorporate the principles of primary health care to reduce inequalities in health care access and health outcomes. It will teach you to apply this knowledge and these skills in relation to public health principles, values and practices that reduce inequity in health care, and improve population health status. Topics cover areas such as action on social determinants of health, social determinants of health and well-being, and critical practice in Indigenous health.

Professional experience placements prepare you for the workplace, both simulated in state-of-the-art laboratories and in clinical venues in rural and metropolitan South Australia.
