The Master of Science program in global health in the School of Human Evolution and Social Change prepares you to improve health for all people, in all places. Rooted in an anthropological and evolutionary approach to health, the program explores how culture, history, biology and the environment interact to shape health outcomes across time and place. Designed as a transdisciplinary and flexible degree, it equips you with the broad, adaptable skillset needed to address today's most pressing global health challenges ranging from emerging infectious diseases to chronic health disparities. In this program, you gain both foundational knowledge and practical skills needed for impactful global health work. Through coursework that engages global health partners and the applied internship, you engage with critical health issues, including ONE Health, nutrition, maternal and child health, and infectious disease. You also develop cross-cutting competencies in epidemiology; research design; monitoring, evaluation and learning (also known as MEL); the art of crafting policy briefs; qualitative data analysis; and more. The program emphasizes developing sustainable, culturally-appropriate solutions and cultivating the ability to critically assess programs and research within diverse global contexts.
