University of Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine

What is the Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine?

The MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine is a 12 months programme in Oxford with published overseas fee of £54,650. MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine combines the taught sequence with the final work published for this exact award. The complete planning total shown here is INR 94.90 lakh.

Oxford publishes about 25 places and 356 applications per year for this course, using a three-year average. Dividing places by applications gives about 7%, but that is not the offer or acceptance rate.

The lower full-course plan is £74,147, about INR 94.90 lakh at the dated reference rate. The application section distinguishes confirmed 2027 dates from details that Oxford has not released, while the cost section labels the exact fee edition.

This is a full-time, in-person, 12-month MSc. The central course page describes a one-year course with an October 2026 start for the currently published academic edition; the department also states one year, full-time, in Oxford. The course is embedded in the Centre for Tropical Medicine and Global Health, within the Nuffield Department of Clinical Medicine/Nuffield Department of Medicine and the Medical Sciences Division. Teaching is expected in the Old Library at the Pitt Rivers Museum. The published 2027-28 overseas course fee is £54,650 for the year; the home fee is £28,420. Oxford explicitly labels these as 2027-28 figures even though the admissions and course-detail edition on the same page is still 2026-27. Oxford’s likely living-cost range for a single full-time student in 2027-28 is £1,475-£2,175 per month. For 12 months that is £17,700-£26,100, making a fee-plus-living planning range of £72,350-£80,750, before visa, immigration health surcharge and personal travel. This total is arithmetic from Oxford’s published fee and monthly range, not a University quote.

MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine doesn’t guarantee admission, isn’t a job offer and can’t replace the published academic preparation or a workable funding plan.

What does Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine cost for an Indian student?

The lower 12-month planning case is £74,147, approximately INR 94.90 lakh. It combines the 2027-28 course fee, Oxford’s £1,475 monthly lower living estimate, the application charge, a £558 Student visa and an estimated £1,164 immigration health surcharge. No compulsory programme-specific charge is added where Oxford says none applies beyond fees and living costs.

The £10,539 outside-London maintenance evidence is not added again because living costs are already included. Where financial evidence is required, the funds must be held for 28 consecutive days and the evidence must be no more than 31 days old when applying. GBP items use £1 = INR 127.9914, the Bank of England daily spot rate for 7 September 2026. It is a reference, not a retail transfer quote.

Oxford’s monthly 2027-28 range is £1,475 to £2,175. The table deliberately uses the lower end, making it a minimum planning case rather than a comfort budget. At the upper end, living alone would be £26,100 for 12 months.

The Student visa maintenance figure and the Oxford living estimate answer different questions. The visa rule sets documentary evidence; the Oxford range is the better local spending reference. Adding both would double-count living money, so it isn’t done here.

Can an Indian applicant meet Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine entry requirements?

An Indian applicant needs evidence matching Oxford’s course-specific degree rule for MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine, including preparation for Paradigms and Tools for Global Health. No GRE or GMAT requirement is published. The published English benchmark is IELTS 7.5 overall and 7.0 in every component. Recheck all three after Oxford’s 16 September refresh.

A MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine academic map points from original marks, syllabus pages and assessed work to the threshold in the table. It should show why Paradigms and Tools for Global Health is progression from existing preparation rather than a rescue course for a missing foundation.

The MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine statement needs a concrete connection from prior evidence to 10,000-word dissertation. Name the question, decision or method you want to carry from Paradigms and Tools for Global Health through the final assessment instead of praising colleges or rankings.

Admission chances: University of Oxford does not publish a MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine cohort size, acceptance rate or typical admitted GPA on the official pages checked on 2 November 2026. Meeting the minimum is not an offer guarantee.

How should an Indian applicant apply for Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine?

The 2027-28 application deadline is 12 noon UK time on 1 December 2026 for an October 2027 start. Oxford requires the complete application by that point; late supporting documents can make a file incomplete. The published figure describes the stated cohort or rule; it isn’t a guarantee of an individual result.

Use Oxford's official graduate application route for central courses and the Saïd application route where the business school directs it. The live programme page controls the exact route, fee and documents.

Applicants use Oxford’s official graduate application route for central courses and the Saïd application route where the business school directs it. The live programme page controls the exact route, fee and documents.

The allowances are preparation estimates, not deadlines or processing times published by University of Oxford. Applicants start dates remain unconfirmed.

Deadline discipline matters because the December or January deadline on many Oxford courses is also the cut-off for automatic consideration for major Oxford scholarships. If Oxford hasn’t published the new course date, last cycle’s deadline cannot decide the calendar.

What jobs can follow Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine?

Relevant directions in several sectors include ministries of health, international organisations, NGOs, research institutions and further study. The strongest evidence is the programme’s assessed work and the applicant’s prior experience, not the university name alone. The Graduate visa supplies search time rather than employment.

For a MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine graduate applying after 1 January 2027, the current non-doctoral Graduate route is 18 months. That can support a search in ministries of health, international organisations, NGOs, research institutions and further study, but occupation access, employer sponsorship and a later Skilled Worker application remain separate decisions.

A MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine recruiter narrative can start with Paradigms and Tools for Global Health, show the student’s own analytical or leadership decision, and end with evidence from 10,000-word dissertation. That chain is legible to employers in ministries of health, international organisations, NGOs, research institutions and further study; a list of Oxford activities without individual contribution is not.

The official MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine programme page and the university career material linked in Sources were checked on 2 November 2026. No programme-level intake size, acceptance rate, audited placement rate, named recruiter list or salary table was published there. No salary is quoted on this page without a source.

The separate official context comes from Nuffield Department of Clinical Medicine, course information. Those rules don’t guarantee admission, immigration status or employment for this programme.

Who is Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine for, and who should avoid it?

In practice, the clearest MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine fit can begin at Paradigms and Tools for Global Health and wants to reach 10,000-word dissertation in 12 months. A weak subject match, dependence on an unconfirmed scholarship or discomfort with this calendar points to a different course.

The first MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine fit test is documentary. A transcript or work record that cannot connect to Paradigms and Tools for Global Health is a reason to compare alternatives, because prestige cannot repair a missing academic foundation.

The second MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine test is instructional. Someone who dislikes the published movement from opening foundations to final assessed work would spend 12 intensive months in the wrong format, regardless of the university name.

What does the Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine curriculum contain?

Oxford currently publishes the following components for the 2026-27 course; names and availability need a 2027-28 refresh check. The published path runs from Paradigms and Tools for Global Health to 10,000-word dissertation. Oxford does not state a comparable credit value for every component on the course profile, so the table counts listed components rather than inventing credits.

• Full-time attendance in Oxford
• Expected length is 12 months
• Current option availability can change
• No ECTS values have been invented

The note “Published course component or current option” applies to 6 components in this table.

Applicants should read the sequence from Paradigms and Tools for Global Health through 10,000-word dissertation. Applicants use it to identify which prior work demonstrates readiness and which component would create the clearest new portfolio or research evidence.

The published curriculum for MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine lists Paradigms and Tools for Global Health, Challenges and Change in International Health, Global Health Research and Practice, Two option modules, and Funded eight-week research placement. These are programme facts, not a claim about admission, module availability, salary or employment.

The published curriculum for MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine lists 10,000-word dissertation. These are programme facts, not a claim about admission, module availability, salary or employment.

Should an Indian applicant shortlist Oxford MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine?

In practice, shortlist MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine when earlier study or work supports Paradigms and Tools for Global Health and the move towards 10,000-word dissertation. The strongest return is inspectable progress across that assessment path. Funding must work without assuming part-time income or a guaranteed job.

Academic fit is unusually important because MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine starts from Paradigms and Tools for Global Health rather than an introductory survey. Historical demand is substantial where Oxford publishes it. Applications and places are different denominators, so neither their ratio nor the formal floor predicts one person's offer.

The decisive counterweight is this: The course expects substantial real-world global-health experience and is not a substitute for a clinical medical qualification; placement design still requires personal and professional flexibility. The lower planning total on this page also assumes Oxford's lower living-cost estimate, not a private-room guarantee or a prediction of personal spending.
