health, including the management and evaluation of health facilities and
techniques for improving health communications, as well as the more
traditional areas of public health.
Many international health professionals have successfully
completed relevant postgraduate degrees through our distance education
programs. The School is
acknowledged internationally as a leader in public health research,
particularly in health promotion through the Western Australian Centre
for Health Promotion Research, as well as in nutrition, aged care,
international health and occupational health. Our membership of the Asia
Pacific Academic Consortium of Public Health allows us to maintain
active links with the top 47 public health schools in our region, with
which we promote collaborative research and student exchanges. The
Master of Public Health provides population health skills for all health
professionals and can be undertaken by coursework or by research. An
emphasis on international health is possible. Similarly, the Master of
Health Administration provides the management and planning skills needed
by many health professionals. The School is
located in a state-of-the-art building, one of the largest and best
equipped public health educational facilities in Australia. It has
extensive information technology facilities available to all students. Laboratory facilities are provided for postgraduate research
students working in such areas as food science, food product
development, nutrition, and environmental and occupational health.
Postgraduate research students have their own computer and study area,
