This provides participants with an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of various aspects of public health emergencies.

The research thesis component allows participants to apply their acquired knowledge to solve real-world challenges in public health emergencies, under the supervision of recognized advisors in the field. Graduates will earn a master’s degree, opening up vast opportunities to take on leadership positions in the field of public health.
