Summary

One Health sits at the interface between human, animal and ecosystem health. This fast-evolving subject area is well-suited to preparing professionals looking to tackle the wide range of complex health challenges of the 21st Century.

One Health has become widely established as an effective approach to managing the health of humans, animals, plants and the ecosystems on which they depend. The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated the need for this more holistic and integrated approach to health across all species, addressing the ecological, environmental, sociological and economic determinants of health.

This programme is suitable for a wide range of professionals, whose disciplinary backgrounds can include the health, biological, environmental and social sciences.

Launched in 2014, this MSc programme capitalises on the many strengths of the University of Edinburgh across multiple disciplines to deliver world-class teaching in One Health and provide the key training and skills required for a successful career in this emerging field.

The One Health programme is part of the Global Health Academy, and we share many elective courses with other postgraduate programmes.

This provides a great deal of flexibility, allowing you to personalise your studies to reflect your professional interests and career aspirations.

As well as learning from our expert tutors, you will join with students from around the world on a number of different master’s programmes to share experiences and knowledge.
