COURSE DESCRIPTION

The two-year Master of Health Leadership and Management (Extension) / Master of Global Health (MHLMext/MGH) dual extension program is an innovative approach to postgraduate education. It meets the education needs of current and aspiring leaders in global health and health services leadership and management. The program responds to a well-recognised need to strengthen public health, health leadership and health management capacities.

The MHLMext gives you the opportunity to extend your knowledge and skills in health services by completing additional research methodology courses and/or an advanced research project in a health services-related topic.

You will graduate with specialist knowledge and skills in global public health and health leadership and management. Learn to recognise the relationships between public health and the delivery of healthcare and to lead in complex political and administrative structures.

Our MHLMext/MGH includes a multidisciplinary program of study aimed at developing global health leaders. You will gain core skills in strategic planning, policy development, change management, quality enhancement, and decision-making. These are complemented by core public health skills in epidemiology, biostatistics, health promotion and skills required to address the challenges of the social determinants of health. You will learn to draw on this interdisciplinary knowledge and research to address global health challenges, including the politics of global health, globalisation, decolonisation, human rights and the environment.

The MHLMext/MGH program fosters judgement-ready critically reflexive practitioners who can lead, manage and improve health services and health systems and contribute to improving public health outcomes in diverse settings drawing on a global health perspective.

Through the extension program, you will gain an understanding of the specialised skills required for roles that involve developing, evaluating and undertaking research to enhance health service delivery.

Graduates typically find employment across a range of employers, including in government ministries and departments of Health, NGOs, primary care and community healthcare services, hospital settings in the public and private sectors in Australia.
