International MPH, School of Public Health | Master's degree | Health & Well-Being | On Campus | 1 year | The Hebrew University of Jerusalem | Israel

The program promotes excellence in international public health research and practice in a broad range of topics. The School has nearly 50 years experience of teaching public health in Israel and in many other countries. The School and its programs have been accredited by the Agency for Public Health Education Accreditation (APHEA) In recognition of our ongoing public health training efforts in Israel and abroad, the World Health Organization designated the School (2007-2014) as a Collaborating Centre for Capacity Building in Public Health. The IMPH Program provides tools for examining public health problems in low and higher income countries, and formulating relevant intervention strategies at the community and national level. The emphasis throughout is on active learning by the student, individually and in groups Israel is both a developed (academically, technologically, etc.) and a still developing young country. We have experienced and struggled with health issues in both these roles. Together with vigorous academic requirements, the program is tailored to the student’s needs and interests. Our teachers are deeply involved, caring and have open communication with their students. Small group tutorial classes are provided for students requiring additional assistance in some core courses. The IMPH Program offers a wide range of social and cultural activities that serve to bond and integrate the students and introduce them to the historical and modern host country of Israel.
