DPhil Clinical Medicine

DPhil Clinical Medicine

The Nuffield Department of Medicine is just as renowned for its work in basic sciences as more clinical or applied work. Much of its research is in understanding the most basic principles of biology and disease pathogenesis. A DPhil degree, which is the University of Oxford's equivalent of a PhD, is a full-time or part-time programme of study and research, based in Oxford or overseas, in one of a wide range of clinical disciplines and research topics.

MSc International Health
& Tropical Medicine

This is a full-time one-year multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary programme examining major challenges to the health of populations in resource-limited contexts. The course embraces the breadth and complexity of global health challenges facing resource-limited settings, and equips candidates with the tools and awareness to contribute to innovative solutions.

MSc International Health
& Tropical Medicine

MSc Modelling for Global Health

MSc Modelling for Global Health

There is great potential for mathematical and economic modelling to help guide policy for national health systems and international policymaking. This is a full-time one-year taught programme that provides interdisciplinary content on modelling, health evidence to inform the modelling, and policy processes to inform decisions.

MSc Genomic Medicine

The application and integration of genomics in medicine will radically change the classification and understanding of disease and the design of clinical trials and vaccinology, as well as enabling faster and more accurate diagnosis, individualised therapies and drug discovery. This is a full-time, one-year multidisciplinary programme training students in the application and integration of genomics in medicine.
