Its primary aim is to train health professionals and new graduates of a wide range of relevant disciplines (e.g. biology, mathematics, medicine, nursing, psychology) in acquiring the technical and soft skills demanded by the public health sector in the 21st century.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The unique structure of the MPH programme allows for the acquisition of core practical skills in key areas of public health science and practice, as well as for specialization in a one of the two offered concentrations (Environmental Health\u00a0<\/strong>OR\u00a0Epidemiology & Biostatistics<\/strong>), thereby providing depth and breadth to the postgraduate studies that each of our students would like to pursue.<\/p>\n Another strength of the program is the CII\u2019s long-standing experience (>14 years) in offering high quality Master programs as a result of its historical association with the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The program builds on courses that have been offered by the Institute during the last decade (e.g. Biostatistics, Epidemiology and Occupational Health), with additional new courses, such as Health Education & Promotion and Health Economics & Policy, taught by distinguished faculty from the Cyprus University of Technology (CUT) and other leading schools of public health. The programme is taught in English and the class size is small (about fifteen students).<\/p>\n Learning outcomes<\/strong><\/p>\n By the end of the MPH program, students should have acquired the following:<\/p>\n Key benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n Duration of studies<\/strong><\/p>\n Prospective students can enter the programme in the beginning of each academic year (early September) and may choose one of the following modes of study:<\/p>\n Full Time<\/strong>: Total duration of 14 months, including two (2) academic semesters of taught modules and a master\u2019s dissertation that can be completed in absentia.<\/p>\n Part Time:\u00a0<\/strong>Typical duration of 26 months, including four (4) academic semesters of taught modules and a master\u2019s dissertation that can be completed in absentia.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Curriculum<\/strong><\/p>\n The programme consists of 11 modules (including the master\u2019s dissertation) that are required to fulfill the requirements of the award of Master in Public Health (MPH) degree.<\/p>\n Each student must take all 8 core (compulsory) modules plus 2 out of the 4 specialization modules and the master\u2019s thesis module. These correspond to a total of 90 ECTS with 60 ECTS of taught modules (46 ECTS core modules and 16 ECTS specialization modules) over a minimum of two academic semesters (Fall and Spring). The remaining months are fully devoted to the research-based dissertation (thesis) for 30 ECTS.<\/p>\n Full-time (14 months) programme schedule*:<\/p>\n * Specialization in Epidemiology and Biostatistics<\/em><\/p>\n ^ Specialization in Environmental Health<\/em><\/p>\n *Part-time students would typically need to split modules offered in the 1st and 2nd semester into four (4) semesters over a period of two academic years.<\/p>\n **The master\u2019s thesis can be submitted once a year at the end of November.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Format<\/strong><\/p>\n All taught modules are comprised of in-class lectures\/seminars\/tutorials (each of two to three hours duration), in addition to self-study (e.g. homework).<\/p>\n The master\u2019s dissertation\/thesis is supervised by at least one member of the programme\u2019s faculty with relevant expertise to your topic of interest and it may involve field work (i.e. data collection) and\/or computer-based data analysis, in addition to self-study (i.e. literature review and writing).<\/p>\n Methods of Assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n You will be assessed through a combination of coursework and examinations. Depending on the specific module, these could be in the form of problem-solving exercises, essays, reports, oral presentations and\/or computer-based practicals.<\/p>\n The curriculum of the MPH program\u00a0<\/em>is nationally-, and EU-accredited by the Cyprus Agency of Quality Assurance and Accreditation in Higher Education (DI.P.A.E.) and the\u00a0<\/em>European<\/em>\u00a0Agency<\/em>\u00a0for<\/em>\u00a0Public<\/em>\u00a0Health<\/em>\u00a0Education<\/em>\u00a0Accreditation<\/em>\u00a0(<\/em>APHEA<\/em>), respectively.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n More information here.<\/a><\/p>\n Programme Coordinator:<\/strong><\/p>\n Costas Christophi, PhD (CII Academic Coordinator)<\/p>\n Associate Professor of Epidemiology and Biostatistics<\/p>\n Cyprus International Institute for Environmental and Public Health (CII)<\/p>\n Faculty of Health Sciences<\/p>\n Contact<\/strong>:\u00a0costas.christophi@cut.ac.cy<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Our interdisciplinary Master\u2019s programme in Public Health (MPH), offered by the Cyprus International Institute of Environmental and Public Health (CII), has been designed for anyone wants to make a difference in the field and develop practical skills for … Continued<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":172,"featured_media":874,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[32],"class_list":["post-872","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-28","tag-publichealthday2022cy"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/web.cut.ac.cy\/covid19\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2020\/08\/iStock-691693256-scaled.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/872","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/172"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=872"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/872\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1706,"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/872\/revisions\/1706"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/874"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=872"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=872"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=872"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"http:\/\/covid19.cut.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2020\/08\/iStock-825232426-1200x500.jpg\")
