Want to make a real difference in healthcare? Our MSc in Health Economics & Decision Modelling gives you the skills to analyse real-world health challenges and influence key decisions. Whether it’s evaluating new treatments, improving public health strategies, or making sure healthcare resources are used wisely. You’ll learn how to assess the cost-effectiveness of medical interventions, model healthcare outcomes, and use data to inform policy. We’ll take you beyond theory, giving you hands-on experience and  the practical skills that employers look for. This course covers medical statistics, evidence synthesis, and econometric methods, applying them to clinical trials and real-world data. You'll learn to build and use mathematical models and simulations to support healthcare decisions, with full training in research methods. Your final project will be a  three-month dissertation project where you’ll tackle real-world health problems, working with experts from the NHS, academia and industry. By the time you graduate, you’ll have the confidence and experience to step straight into a career. Built with employers in mind:This course has a reputation among employers for turning out graduates who can hit the ground running. Learn by doing:You'll get stuck into real clinical trials and healthcare data, so the skills you leave with are ones you'll use.
