Obinoscopy: Please is there any Public Health Student of Unilag in this Forum?
Please I need some information about how things are done in Unilag. My name came out in the admission list of students for Public Health part time studies.
Please I will appreciate it if you can drop your number or email address so that I can reach you.
Thanks

Obinoscopy: Its interesting and challenging at the same time. You have to be ready to learn.

There is Full Time and Part Time. Full time takes one year while Part Time is two years. Lectures is on Fridays and Saturdays for both FT and PT students while Project sessions is on Thursdays for only FT students.

sup bro ? is there really a difference in Mph and Msc public health . because I have a Bsc in biochemistry and i have merely 2yrs post experience in a medicine related field(scientific officer ) how do I go about it ? can I still apply ?which do I apply for?

Obinoscopy:
MSc Public Health is academic while MPH is professional. You can do a PhD after MSc Public Health but you can't with MPH. Also MPH requires practical sessions with Primary Health Centres while MSc is less practical. MPH is for only medical doctors in Unilag but other schools permit guys from other medical fields, yours inclusive.

Hello PHarm, please the requirement I saw on unilag website says its only MBBS n BDS , please is this really true? And it also mentions experience in local , state healthcare, biko I don't have that. I know its been some time you did your masters but please I want to know if these stipulations were there when you did your own mph and how you managed to scale thru it. I have a b.PHarm also from lag, help a sis, thank you.
