Welcome to the School of Public Health & Life Sciences at the Canadian University of Bangladesh (CUB). Our mission is simple and urgent: to educate the next generation of public health leaders and life-science professionals who will improve health outcomes in Bangladesh and beyond.
Today's public health calls for scientific rigor, practical problem-solving, and a steadfast dedication to equity. Our Bachelor of Public Health (BPH) builds a strong foundation across epidemiology, biostatistics, environmental and occupational health, health promotion, nutrition, and health systems. You will gain practical skills through community engagement, field placements, and hands-on labs that explore the life-science underpinnings of population health - microbiology, immunology, and essentials of genomics. Throughout, you'll learn to communicate evidence clearly to policymakers, media, and the public.
Our Master of Public Health (MPH) is designed for graduates and working professionals who want to deepen expertise and move into leadership. The program emphasizes advanced analytics, policy design and evaluation, implementation science, and program management. Through an applied practicum or capstone, you will translate evidence into action - whether tackling non-communicable diseases, infectious disease surveillance, climate-related health risks, or maternal and child health. Elective pathways allow you to tailor learning to your interests and career goals.
We place equal emphasis on the human side of education. You will find mentorship, research opportunities, career advising, and a culture that values integrity, inclusivity, and service. We encourage our students to think globally and act locally, aligning their work with the Sustainable Development Goals while staying grounded in the needs of our communities. You will graduate with the knowledge, skills, and purpose to lead change.
As you begin your journey with us, I invite you to stay curious, collaborate boldly, and nurture a lifelong habit of learning - so that together we can shape a healthier, more equitable, and sustainable future.
Learn locally. Lead globally. Change health for good.
Warm regards,
