| This directory, compiled for the academic year 1970-71 by the World Health Organization, lists about 121 schools of public health in 44 countries. It is intended as a reference work for medical educationalists, prospective postgraduate students, and those concerned with the administration of fellowships and exchange programmes. Medical schools that offer appropriate basic postgraduate public health training are included, whereas those offering only an undergraduate course in public health, or specialized courses in particular branches of public health, or who provide training for personnel other than physicians, are not. The institutions are classified according to country, each of which is dealt with in a separate chapter. The text of each chapter is subdivided into six parts: general information about the institution, courses offered, admission requirements, curriculum, examinations, and qualifications offered. At the end of each chapter, the schools are tabulated alphabetically, indicating the address, year public health course began, number of teaching staff, enrollment in each course offered, and total enrollment, for each institution. |
