The Focus on Public Health course is the first installment of the broader Foundations of Public Health Practice specialization of Imperial College London's global Master of Public Health (MPH). The scope and content of this course have been developed from the ground up by a combined team of academics and practitioners drawing on decades of real-world public health experience as well as deep academic knowledge. Through short video lectures, interviews with professionals, and a wide range of interactive activities, students will be immersed in the world of public health practice. Designed for those new to the discipline, in four modules (intended for four weeks of learning), students will become familiar with the scope, origins, ethics, principles, and paradigms of public health practice. But there is also important foundational content for those coming from more seasoned professionals. The 'Public Health Approach' is a phrase that is widely used to describe a bottom-up, preventative, values-driven, evidence-based approach to improving population health. By the end of this course, students will confidently identify and describe a wide range of public health challenges using the language and benchmarks of the public health profession. Subsequent courses require knowledge from this course, as students will be introduced to the public health toolkit of health needs assessment and assessment, before delving into behavior change and health protection. is a phrase that is widely used to describe a bottom-up, preventative, values-based, and evidence-based approach to improving population health.
