It is now possible to study for the UCD Masters in Public Health in Penang Medical College. This collaborative initiative will have its first cohort of students starting in September 2016. The course content and qualification obtained are exactly the same for those students studying on the UCD and the Penang campuses. The Penang campus may be more convenient for students from the region and for those western students interested in global health issues who have never lived, or worked, outside their own country.
