The Master of Science in International Health (MScIH) at the Faculty of Medicine, Ruprecht Karls University Heidelberg, is designed for health professionals aiming to address poverty-related health problems in low- and middle-income countries. The program provides a solid foundation in international public health principles and practical competencies for running and initiating disease control, health promotion, and health service development programs across diverse settings. Its curriculum covers public health methods (qualitative and quantitative), health policy, health economics, and program planning. The degree can be pursued full-time or part-time, is entirely taught in English, and attracts international students. Coursework includes core and advanced modules with a research thesis, allowing students flexibility to specialize. The standard period of study is 2 semesters (1 year full-time), but it may be extended up to 5 years for part-time students. Students learn to critically analyze health systems, plan sustainable health improvements, and lead multidisciplinary teams in global health settings. 来源： https://www.uni-heidelberg.de/en/study/all-subjects/medicine-study-location-heidelberg/medicine-study-location-heidelberg-staatsexamen
