Master in Control Sexually Transmitted Infections

Tuition fees for Master in Control Sexually Transmitted Infections are 6,331 USD per year. The application deadline for the Apr 2027 intake is Jan 23, 2027.

This intensive five-week module centres on the practical realities of managing sexually transmitted infections (STIs) within resource-limited settings and regions experiencing high incidence. By examining the intersection of epidemiology and public health policy, students develop the skills necessary to design, implement, and evaluate targeted STI control programmes.

Strategic Programme Development

The curriculum bridges theoretical public health principles with actionable intervention strategies. Participants engage deeply with:

• The epidemiology of STIs and their impact on diverse, high-risk populations.
• The complexities of planning, budgeting, and resource allocation in low- and middle-income contexts.
• Monitoring and evaluation frameworks designed to measure the success of public health interventions.

Delivered through a hybrid model that combines face-to-face instruction at LSHTM with synchronous online engagement, the module fosters a collaborative environment. Students are challenged to apply their learning through the development of a professional-standard proposal for an STI control programme, grounded in a 'Theory of Change' framework.
