01. INTRODUCTION
The National Institute of Epidemiology (NIE) was conducting two programmes of Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology (SCTIMST), Thiruvananthapuram: (1) Master of Applied Epidemiology (MAE) since 2001 and (2) Master of Public Health (Health Services Development Research) (MPH-HSDR) since 2008, at NIE, Chennai. These programmes were primarily aimed at developing a cadre of
trained public health professionals in the country by training the ‘in-service’ health
professionals working in government health departments. Since July 2011, NIE has been conducting MPH (Epidemiology and Health Systems) programme designed by integration of MAE and MPH (HSDR), building on the strengths of
the two programmes. The programme uses the basic learning by doing model with focus on
applied epidemiology and health systems. The academic session for the year 2014 commences on 1st July 2014.
02. CORE COMPETENCIES MPH (Epidemiology and Health Systems) programme is designed to introduce the students
to the basic principles of public health, with emphasis on public health practices in India. Upon completion of the MPH, the student is expected to develop the following seven
technical core competencies:
(1) Understand the scope and concepts and master the methods in epidemiology
(2) Plan, implement and evaluate public health surveillance systems
(3) Investigate the outbreaks
(4) Conduct public health research in accordance with principles of human subject protection
(5) Communicate public health information to lay and professional audiences
(6) Conceptualize the elements of health systems to effectively design, develop, implement and evaluate the public health interventions
(7) Comprehend the biological, social, behavioural, environmental determinants affecting healthMPH-IB-2
03. COURSE DESCRIPTION
(a) Duration and course organization: The MPH (Epidemiology and Health Systems) is a two-year programme, comprising of four contact sessions across 13 months at NIE interspersed with three field postings of 11 months duration in total.
