Presentation
 |
 This programme is aimed at offering solutions to problems in public health in developing countries. It is based on an integrated approach to health problems, it responds to the priority needs of people in the South as the know-how acquired can be applied directly to a country's context.
 |
 A la fin de cette formation, les étudiants sont à même d'analyser les déteminants et de mesurer l'importance des problèmes de santé dans les pays en développement ; de définir des priorités en vue de la santé et du développement ; d'élaborer, de mettre en oeuvre et d'évaluer des stratégies d'intervention sanitaires et médico-sociales adéquates et de contribuer à la mise en oeuvre de politiques et de programmes intersectoriels pertinents pour le développement. Ainsi, l'étudiant, professionnel de santé ayant déjà exercé des responsabilités dans un distric de santé ou dans une direction régionales, pourra organiser des services et des soins de santé plus efficaces, plus efficients et plus équitables.

Duration
 |

- One year of studies. The study programme includes 477.5 hours of classes, seminars or practical work. With the help of one of the co-ordinators, students are required to establish a study programme in accordance with the provisions below and to have it approved by the joint programme management committee.
- Teaching is in French. A passive knowledge of scientific English is an additional asset for students. If necessary, remediation measures may be recommended by the joint programme management committee.
- The compulsory recommended classes are organised at UCL, ULB and ULg by grouping them into whole days at the same site to limit travel.
- Insofar as it is possible, students benefit from access to the various structures of the three Schools of Public Health as well as the resources accessible to students from the three faculties of medicine established on these three campuses.
