Work in a district health office rarely stays the same for long. One month it’s an outbreak, the next it’s a new reporting portal or a change in scheme guidelines. Plenty of people in these roles want proper training in epidemiology, policy and management. Very few can step away from their jobs for two years to get it. That’s the gap the executive master of public health at IIHMR University sets out to fill.

The dissertation carries 30 credits. Participants use what they have learned across the programme to study a public health problem. Because the cohort is made up of working professionals, this is a chance to look closely at a question connected to the kind of work you already do.
Plan a few practical things early. Speak to your employer about the residency periods, which add up to about 40 days spread across two years. Budget for travel to Jaipur and for your stay and meals during each residency, as participants cover these costs themselves. Finally, think about the public health problem you might want to study for your dissertation. Arriving with a question in mind makes the third and fourth semesters easier to plan.
Graduates of any discipline with 50% aggregate marks or equivalent CGPA can apply. For SC/ST/OBC-NC/EWS/PwD candidates, the cut-off is 45%. If you hold a postgraduate degree with 50% or more, the graduation percentage doesn’t apply to you. Three years of relevant work experience is required in every case.
Only in part. You’ll keep working from wherever you’re based, but each residency has to be attended in person in Jaipur. The programme isn’t run fully online.
Yes, Rs. 1,000 for national applicants. It isn’t refunded.
Apply online first. Shortlisted applicants are called for a personal interview, which is held online. The final decision looks at your academic record, work experience, how the interview went, and how clear you are about your goals. If you’re selected, you’ll get an admission offer.
18 courses over four semesters, and then the dissertation. Total credits: 81. The dissertation alone is worth 30.
