Master of Public Health / Master of Health Administration - Ageing Strategy and Policy (Dual Degree)

Program Overview

If you are currently working in the health services setting and want to expand your career into senior health management roles and to develop comprehensive skills in the theory and practice of both public health and health services management, the Master of Public Health and Master of Health Administration is designed for you.

La Trobe University's Master of Public Health and Master of Health Administration will prepare you for future health services management roles that deal with the needs of the ageing population, integration of healthcare delivery systems, technological innovations and an increasingly complex regulatory environment. The program will provide you with the opportunity to undertake a research or practice based project enabling you to apply your skills and knowledge to real world problems.

Specialisation: Ageing strategy and policy

As Australia's population ages and an increasing number of people live with disabilities and chronic conditions, our healthcare needs are changing.

You'll make meaningful change to this evolving sector. Build on your existing skills as you explore the social and health service challenges facing ageing adults, and how the social determinants of health impact the health and wellbeing of ageing adults. Learn about governance and policy development, while also honing the critical thinking skills necessary to tackle this issue in a strategic and informed way.
