Degree Programmes

CII offers the following master’s degree programs:

The two programs share a similar structure and a core curriculum, and both are taught entirely in English. Both programs begin each year in September and finish in December of the following year. Both programs rely upon integrated, interdisciplinary curriculum taught by distinguished faculty from Cyprus University of Technology, and other leading schools of public health/ environmental science.

CII also offers a PhD program in Environmental and Public Health.
The PhD program is limited in size and is highly selective.

Students may pursue the MS in Environmental Health or in Epidemiology and Biostatistics as their terminal degree and elect a career in either academia or industry, or they may use this program as preparation for further studies towards a doctoral degree. After earning the MS degree, about one third of our graduates go on to doctoral research programs or seek other advanced degrees at the best universities in the world – such as Harvard, Cambridge, Stanford, and King’s College London. Other graduates return to their countries to serve in government ministries and agencies, or as academics, consultants, or health specialists in industry.

In both MS programs, the class size is small (at most twenty to twenty-five students). The small class size facilitates individualized teaching and mentoring, and the programs are highly selective. Students come from Cyprus and other parts of the world – for example, Lebanon, Egypt, Greece, Israel, Nigeria, Germany, Turkey, the United States, and Bangladesh.

The student body represents many professions and academic backgrounds, including medicine, chemistry, engineering, mathematics, public health, and economics.
