International Student Master Scholarships at UCL Centre for International Health and Development


CIHD is an interdisciplinary collaboration of leading academics working on health and development in a global context. We are based at the Institute of Child Health within University College London and work closely with the UCL Institute for Global Health
Our main research themes are:

  • maternal and newborn health
  • nutrition and livelihoods
  • early childhood development
  • disability and children in difficult circumstances
Cross cutting topics include HIV prevention and treatment, the evaluation of community interventions, and the analysis of health systems and policies.
We collaborate with a number of centres of excellence (especially in Africa and Asia) and share results of research widely so that they can contribute to the improvement of the health, nutrition and development of people in poor communities. We also work with a range of international agencies and NGOs promoting the use of evidence-based good practice.
