Master of Public Health (MPH) in Indigenous Health examines indigenous health from multiple perspective and world-views. Indigenous knowledges, pedagogies, and approaches to research will be utilized in tandem with Western approaches. Opportunities for land- based learning, traditional medicine teachings, interaction with Elders, and community engagement will permeate the program. Students will gain a broad public health knowledge base with specific expertise in Indigenous health issues. This program does not enable students to be eligible for participation in the Collaborative Specialization in Indigenous Health (CSIH).

Students also have the opportunity to take courses outside of the University of Toronto and must consult with their Program Director and the Graduate Office.

Students typically undertake a 16-week full-time practicum in the Winter session of year 1 of the program (Term 3). Some students complete an optional 12-week full-time practicum in the Summer session of year 2 (Term 5). The purpose of practica is to enable students to develop ‘hands-on’ experience in an Indigenous organization and to apply theories and analytical skills acquired in the academic portion of the degree.
Students will only receive a maximum of 3.5 FCE for practicum courses during their program.
