Overview

DIRECTOR: Dr. Antonio J. Trujillo 

The Master of Health Science (MHS) in Global Health Economics is a 9-month STEM academic program that teaches students how to use economic tools to help solve pressing global health problems.

With increasing globalization, there is a growing need for health economists who can translate research into policy and directly inform governments and organizations on the best course of action. Through this degree program, students will learn how health economic principles are used to address global issues such as migration, displaced persons, climate change, and pandemics. They’ll also learn how health economics can be used to promote healthy lifestyles, positive health outcomes, and equitable access to care.

Using applied health cases from around the world, students will learn how to conduct economic evaluations of health programs and how to evaluate the impact of social problems on the health of a community or population. They will also gain a solid understanding of how to influence behavior through the use of economic incentives.

The major components of the MHS in Global Health Economics include:

  • Nine months of academic coursework building strengths in economics, econometrics, economic evaluation, and epidemiology
    • Specialty elective courses in international health topics
  • Written comprehensive exam
  • Scholarly paper
    • Integrates material from multiple courses applying econometrics, evaluation, and/or other research techniques to a topic of interest

Within the School, this degree is classified as an academic MHS as it provides an opportunity for advanced study and research in a specific public health discipline and will prepare students for a career in global health economics or further graduate study.

An academic adviser is assigned from the list of Advising Faculty in the student's program area. The MHS Director provides general guidance and supervision over all students in each program area. 

Requirements for Admission 

Students must have a strong quantitative background with undergraduate coursework in microeconomics and calculus highly recommended. Some prior international or health systems experience is highly desirable. GRE scores are required.


Concurrent Degree Options

For admitted doctoral students at the Bloomberg School of Public Health

Students who have been admitted to a PhD program at Bloomberg (except PhD in International Health, Health Systems concentration) have the opportunity to pursue an MHS in Global Health Economics concurrently with their doctoral program. Students will need to obtain approval from the Chair of their PhD program's sponsoring department.

Failure to complete this course will prevent students from matriculating for 3rd term.

Students who are being funded by an NIH training grant must also take one of the following two courses: PH.550.600 Living Science Ethics - Responsible Conduct of Research offered first term OR PH.306.665 Research Ethics and integrity offered third term.  

Core and International Health Requirements

Students in the MHS in Global Health Economics must complete the required courses listed below. Schedule permitting, students can take additional electives provided they do not conflict with the required and elective courses. A list of elective courses is provided. Additional electives not included in the list need to be approved by the MHS Program Director. 

All core and elective courses must be taken for letter grades.

Comprehensive Exam

Satisfactory performance is required on a written comprehensive examination. Students will take the exam in the 4th term date to be announced in February. The exam will cover the materials taught in the core courses and the required courses from International Health. 

A minimum overall passing grade of 75 is required. Exams will be graded by the co-instructors of the Capstone course. Those scoring below this level may retake the entire examination on a later term decided by the co-Director of International Health (student must maintain registration if taking the comprehensive exam a second time). Only one reexamination is permitted. Students failing twice are terminated from the MHS program.

Scholarly Paper

Students are expected to write a scholarly paper during their four-term degree. Students must work with their adviser on their papers starting 1st term. Students must register for course 221.851 MHS Global Health Economics Scholarly Paper for 2 credits, during third and fourth terms to work solely on their scholarly paper. The paper must be completed during the fourth term and the due date for the paper is TBA. The scholarly paper will be graded by two faculty members: the Director of the MHS program in Global Health Economics and the student’s adviser. If a student identifies a topic that does not align with their adviser’s research area, the student must identify a new adviser and needs to seek approval for this change from the MHS Program Director.

Time of Completion of Requirements

Students are expected to complete all requirements for the degree in one year (four terms). Delays will be considered, but in no case may the time in the program exceed four years from the time of matriculation, regardless of the residence status of the student (other than leave of absence).

Individualized Goals Analysis (IGA)

The IGA is a process of discussion with your adviser resulting in a written document.

Part 1: Briefly explain what knowledge, skills, and experiences you bring to the program.

Part 2: Identify your goals for your education by explaining what you hope to gain in terms of knowledge, skills, personal and professional contacts, and other experiences while a student in the program. Describe one or more topics for your scholarly paper and indicate how these will be used to build your competencies and achieve your goals.

Part 3: Identify what courses and electives you intend to take and when you plan to complete your courses. Course descriptions in the catalogue indicate when courses are generally offered. Your tracking sheet should include a tentative list of electives you plan to complete and the total credit hours. Carefully review your paper and tracking sheet with your adviser to ensure the proposed curriculum is not only feasible but that it meets program requirements. Explain how your curriculum plan is aligned with the goals you identified in Part 2. A spreadsheet is often the best way to do this part. 

MHS in Global Health Economics Program Learning Outcomes

According to the requirements of the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH), all BSPH degree students must be grounded in foundational public health knowledge. Please view the list of specific CEPH requirements by degree type.

Upon completion of the MHS in Global Health Economics program, individuals are equipped to:

  1. Apply and analyze statistics and econometric methods (including statistical inferences, regression methods, and applied econometric methods) to solve public health problems all while assessing burden of disease;
  2. Measure and calculate the cost, health effects, and equity of public health interventions, distinguishing between methods and modeling practices used in economic evaluation;
  3. Apply economic evaluation tools and modeling, and microeconomic concepts, to interpret, analyze, and evaluate issues of health, health care delivery, organizations and financing, and public health policy in a global context;
  4. Measure and integrate issues of access and equity for vulnerable populations into economic evaluations of public health policy;
  5. Evaluate the health status and globalization of LMIC populations including incidence and prevalence of disease morbidity and mortality, and life expectancy in LMICs;
  6. Examine the link between governance, economic development, financing of health care, and poverty.
