What is EIT Master of Health Science?
EIT Master of Health Science is a 18 months, 180-credit health-science programme. Its NZ$44,400 standard 2027 tuition produces a known first-year plan of INR 36.30 lakh before insurance, levy and travel. EIT’s final offer still controls the exact Master of Health Science campus, conditions and payable amount for the chosen 2027 intake.
How much does EIT Master of Health Science cost?
The known first-year plan is NZ$65,250, approximately INR 36.30 lakh. It combines the standard 2027 tuition, NZ$20,000 maintenance requirement and current NZ$850 student-visa charge. Insurance, travel and EIT’s final 2027 levy remain extra. For Master of Health Science, the unpriced items prevent this transparent subtotal from being presented as an all-inclusive invoice.
| Item | INR | Local currency | When it is due |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 international tuition | INR 24.70 lakh | NZ$44,400 | Before enrolment |
| Living-funds evidence, one year | INR 11.13 lakh | NZ$20,000 | For the student visa |
| Fee Paying Student Visa | INR 47,286 | NZ$850 | At online application |
| Insurance | Not converted | Not one fixed 2027 amount | Required before study |
| Student Services Levy | Not converted | 2027 amount not published | At enrolment |
| Known first-year plan | INR 36.30 lakh | NZ$65,250 | Before travel and unpriced items |
The NZ$20,000 figure is evidence of available living funds, not a fee paid to Immigration New Zealand. It is included once as the living-cost planning baseline. INR values use NZD 1 = INR 55.63098, the Xe mid-market table dated 3 September 2026. Consumer transfer rates will differ. Insurance, medical checks, flights, deposits, course materials and the final 2027 levy are excluded.
The published tuition is NZ$44,400. EIT presents that as the current programme price for the 180-credit route.
EIT’s 2027 fee matrix excludes insurance, the Student Services Levy and programme-specific costs. The levy page still shows NZ$402 for 2026; this page does not mislabel it as the 2027 charge.
New Zealand immigration requires NZ$20,000 for each year of tertiary study and evidence of outward travel or extra funds for it. Actual spending depends on accommodation and location, so the immigration amount is a floor rather than a cost guarantee.
A five percent movement in the exchange rate changes the known first-year rupee plan by about INR 1.81 lakh. Budgeting should therefore retain a currency margin as well as money for the excluded items.
Can an Indian applicant meet the Master of Health Science entry rules?
The controlling health-science programme rule is a health-related bachelor’s degree with at least a B minus average in the final year, or an allied health-science qualification with sufficient degree-level health experience. English is IELTS Academic 6.5 with no band below 6.0, or an accepted equivalent. EIT publishes no GRE or GMAT requirement for this health-science programme.
| Requirement | Published rule | What you do |
|---|---|---|
| Master of Health Science academic route (India) | a health-related bachelor's degree with at least a B minus average in the final year, or an allied health-science qualification with sufficient degree-level health experience | Map the full Indian transcript to the Master of Health Science rule |
| Master of Health Science English and selection (India) | IELTS Academic 6.5 with no band below 6.0, or an accepted equivalent | Pair the valid score with any exact Master of Health Science selection health-science evidence |
The academic file for Master of Health Science has to prove a health-related bachelor’s degree with at least a B minus average in the final year, or an allied health-science qualification with sufficient degree-level health experience. A similarly named Indian degree doesn’t remove EIT’s assessment, and Indian foreign-health-science qualification equivalence remains a separate process.
Where Master of Health Science uses an interview, portfolio, registration check or discretionary route, the health-science evidence must answer that selection purpose. It can’t be replaced by an unrelated test score.
Three checks that can change the result
The programme rule controls
The general qualification level cannot replace this course’s exact subject or selection condition. EIT states the route on the official programme page.
A conditional route is not guaranteed
Alternative admission, experience, interview and portfolio routes require EIT assessment. Prepare evidence before applying and do not present discretion as automatic eligibility.
Registration remains separate
Where the target occupation is regulated, current regulator requirements control protected practice. Programme completion and professional registration remain separate decisions.

How should you apply to EIT Master of Health Science?
The EIT international route accepts full-time Master of Health Science applications for the 2027 starts recorded in the intake strip. EIT publishes no fixed closing date, so the working plan begins at least 12 weeks before the chosen start and leaves additional time for the visa decision.

The application begins with the exact full-time Master of Health Science route. Related qualifications, multiple credit routes and campus choices make the award name alone insufficient.
The Master of Health Science file contains records as issued, together with translations and any registration, employment, portfolio, reference, police, health or interview evidence required by the guide.
Offer review for Master of Health Science compares the invoice with the NZ$44,400 standard fee and identifies insurance, levy, materials and any practice costs. A scholarship-adjusted net amount applies only when EIT confirms it in writing.
Visa preparation follows an eligible Master of Health Science offer and brings together tuition evidence, NZ$20,000 living funds, outward-travel evidence, insurance, health and character documents. Admission and the visa remain separate decisions.
Immigration New Zealand currently reports that 80 percent of Fee Paying Student Visa applications are completed within 8.5 weeks, although individual files can take longer.
What jobs and work rights follow EIT Master of Health Science?
EIT connects the health-science programme with advanced health practice, service development, education, policy and research roles. It publishes no health-science programme health-science placement rate or salary. Current student-visa conditions may allow up to 25 hours a week, while post-study eligibility depends on health-science qualification and study duration.
| Measure | Figure | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Master of Health Science directions | advanced health practice, service development, education, policy and research roles | EIT Master of Health Science materials |
| Master of Health Science health-science placement rate | Not published by EIT | No current Master of Health Science cohort rate |
| Work after Master of Health Science | 3 years | Health-Science qualification and full-time Master of Health Science duration |
For Master of Health Science, health-science curriculum and career directions don't prove an individual job, salary, registration result or residence pathway.
EIT links Master of Health Science with advanced health practice, service development, education, policy and research roles. That wording maps possible directions, while the absence of a Master of Health Science health-science placement rate prevents a responsible probability claim.
Post-study work rules attach to the completed health-science qualification and study duration, not to the marketing name Master of Health Science. Visa eligibility therefore can’t be inferred from a career list alone.
Who should choose EIT Master of Health Science, and who should not?
Master of Health Science fits an health-science applicant whose record clears its health-science programme-specific academic and selection route. The positive case is advanced health practice, health-science evidence appraisal, research methods and an independent health project; the negative case is dependence on an unpublished health-science placement, salary, registration result or immigration health-science outcome.
| Verdict | Your background | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Strong fit | Health-Science applicant meeting the Master of Health Science academic route | The health-science evidence matches the published Master of Health Science requirement. |
| Strong fit | Health-Science applicant seeking advanced health practice, health-science evidence appraisal, research methods and an independent health project | The Master of Health Science health-science curriculum directly supports that direction. |
| Do not shortlist | Health-Science applicant affected by the main Master of Health Science limitation | The award does not itself create professional registration. Applicants need to check the relevant New Zealand regulator separately when their target role is licensed. |
Master of Health Science fits when level 8 health courses and additional taught health study both serve the target role. That combination is the positive case for this particular EIT health-science programme.
Master of Health Science should leave the shortlist when its central limitation controls the decision. Naming that trade-off makes the recommendation usable rather than promotional.
What does the EIT Master of Health Science curriculum contain?
The published qualification guide totals 180 New Zealand credits. Its structure connects level 8 health courses, additional taught health study and level 9 research. The table shows the programme blocks without inventing a semester timetable. EIT’s current guide controls options, prerequisites and the order in which Master of Health Science courses run.
Published curriculum structure
| Component | NZ credits | Where it sits |
|---|---|---|
| Level 8 health courses | 90 | Three approved advanced courses |
| Additional taught health study | 30 | Used in the project-focused route |
| Level 9 research | 60 | Project, report, dissertation or thesis pathway |
| Total | 180 |
- The qualification total is 180 credits.
- Options and alternative pathways depend on approval and current delivery.
- The official guide and offer control where a curriculum summary changes.
Level 8 health courses carries 90 credits in Master of Health Science for three approved advanced courses. Prior study establishes whether this is new depth or repeated foundation work.
Additional taught health study contributes 30 credits to Master of Health Science for used in the project-focused route. This block is the central breadth or specialisation test.
Level 9 research contributes 60 credits to Master of Health Science for project, report, dissertation or thesis pathway. Academic credit doesn’t guarantee a paid host or graduate job.
EIT can update the Master of Health Science sequence, options and prerequisites. The current guide and offer establish the live course-level enrolment plan inside the complete 180-credit qualification.
Should an Indian student shortlist EIT Master of Health Science?
The Master of Health Science shortlist case rests on three published health-science curriculum blocks and the EIT admission route. Its case fails when the course-specific limitation, full-time delivery or NZ$44,400 tuition and complete living-cost plan conflicts with the intended health-science outcome. The EIT offer records the payable fee.
The three-part Master of Health Science study plan totals 180 New Zealand credits and moves from taught preparation into advanced or independent work. That design can create academic health-science evidence, but it doesn't turn a project or practice requirement into promised employment.
The decisive Master of Health Science limitation is set out in the fit test beside the health-science curriculum health-science evidence. Funding also has to work without assumed part-time earnings, because visa work rights don't replace the pre-arrival funds requirement.
- EIT Master of Health Science is a 18 months, 180-credit full-time NZQF Level 9 programme.
- Standard 2027 international tuition is NZ$44,400 for the programme.

- The main caution is specific: The award does not itself create professional registration. Applicants need to check the relevant New Zealand regulator separately when their target role is licensed.
