Master of Public Health

The Master of Health Science at EIT supports students who want advanced knowledge in healthcare, leadership, education, and research. The programme has grown as EIT expanded its postgraduate offerings to meet the needs of health professionals and communities. Students learn through coursework and supervised research, allowing them to investigate current health issues and apply evidence to professional practice.

Graduates can work in healthcare management, community health, education, research, and advanced clinical or professional roles. The programme develops research skills, communication, leadership, and analytical abilities that are valued across the health sector. EIT's close connections with healthcare providers and community organisations give students opportunities to engage with real practice settings. The qualification is recognised within New Zealand and supports graduates who wish to continue into further research or pursue health-related careers in other countries.
