Learning Pedagogy
The unique pedagogy offers a mix of onsite teaching at IIHMR University campus, online courses by BSPH faculty, travel to Bloomberg School of Public Health at Baltimore for in person courses and interaction, and the practicum experience that applies competencies and skills acquired through the program to a public health problem relevant to a student’s professional goals and interests.
In the current academic session, the students will travel to Baltimore, Maryland, USA, to attend the Summer Institute at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in June 2027.
During the program, students interact with public health faculty members renowned for teaching, practice and ongoing research around the world. In this diverse and collaborative learning environment, students learn as much from each other as they do from their coursework.
Graduates become part of the largest MPH alumni network across the globe.
