Overview
What are the conditions that allow for successful implementation, at scale, of proven global health interventions? What are the barriers to and blockers of implementation and how can they be addressed and overcome? What are the recognized (and unrecognized) success stories in global health, and what can we learn from past successes? Policy implementation science has advanced to the point where descriptive explanations are no longer enough, and prescriptive norms can identified and generalized.Eligibility
For entry onto our PhD programme we look for a first-class or upper second-class UK Honours degree, or overseas equivalent, in a relevant business or social science related subject. We also normally expect a Masters’ degree in a relevant subject, or overseas equivalent. When reviewing your academic achievements, we're particularly interested in grades which relate to independent research (for example, your research project or dissertation).
