The Master of Epidemiology (MEpi) at the University of Melbourne is designed for students to want to increase their research skills in epidemiology with the aim of either contributing to epidemiological or medical research or developing a research career, but who don’t want the breadth of subjects required for the MPH.
The course combines five compulsory integrated subjects in epidemiology and statistical methods, one specialty elective subject and a research report where students conduct an applied project.
The Master of Epidemiology is an excellent grounding for undertaking a PhD or other graduate research program. It also develops skills that enable clinical researchers to undertake their own research.
