The American International University West Africa (AIUWA) Master of Public Health (MPH)
degree has been developed with a multi-disciplinary approach and special focus and
commitment to the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) goal to achieve full health potential
for all people in the world, with two main aims: to promote and protect people's health
throughout their lives; and to reduce the incidence of the main diseases and injuries, and
alleviate the suffering they cause.
The AIUWA MPH program is a full-time over six
semesters (two year) degree program. The program will provide courses that combine
mandatory academic and professional subjects, enabling students to graduate with both
academic degrees combined with professional qualifications and high level of
entrepreneurial skills. Students will be trained and prepared academically, practically and
professionally to “hit the ground running” in the public and private sectors. Our curriculum is
therefore aligned with the needs of the market in such a way that graduates are employable
and are able to perform on their jobs with minimal supervision.
