EnglishHow to Find Study Information on the LSHTM Website
Updated
To find study information on lshtm.ac.uk, start from the site's main navigation and look for the study or prospective students section, then work through three things in order: the programme you want, its entry requirements, and the application route. LSHTM describes itself as a world-leading centre for research and postgraduate education in public and global health, so expect the study pages to be organised around postgraduate degrees rather than undergraduate ones.
Where study information sits on the site
LSHTM's site is built around its identity as a postgraduate and research institution. In practice, that means:
- Programmes are listed by subject area and by qualification type (for example master's degrees, research degrees, and short courses).
- Entry requirements are attached to each individual programme page rather than gathered in one place, so check the page for the specific course you want.
- How to apply is usually a separate admissions section linked from each programme page and from the main navigation.
The exact menu labels and page paths are not confirmed in the available site information, so treat the navigation as a starting point and use the site's own search if a label differs from what you expect.
A practical route through the site
- Open the homepage at lshtm.ac.uk and locate the study or prospective students entry in the main navigation.
- Choose your level and subject. Filter or browse to the qualification you want, then to the subject area — public health, epidemiology, global health, and related social sciences are the core areas.
- Open the individual programme page. This is where the substantive detail lives: structure, duration, and entry requirements.
- Follow the apply link from that page to the admissions information, which should cover deadlines, required documents, and the application system.
- Verify before relying on it. Confirm fees, dates, and requirements on the current programme page, since these change between intake years.
What to look for on each programme page
| What you need | Where to expect it |
|---|---|
| Programme content and structure | The individual programme page |
| Entry requirements (degree class, English language, experience) | The same programme page, usually a dedicated section |
| How and when to apply | Admissions pages linked from the programme page |
| Fees and funding | Programme or fees pages — check current figures directly |
| Contact for questions | Departmental or admissions contact listed on the page |
Common sticking points
- Assuming one central requirements page. Requirements differ by programme, so a general admissions page may not answer your specific question.
- Confusing research centres with teaching programmes. LSHTM's research reputation is prominent across the site; make sure you are on a study page, not a research group page.
- Relying on cached or third-party summaries. Fees, deadlines, and entry criteria should always be read on the live LSHTM page for the year you intend to apply.
If a programme page does not answer a question about eligibility or deadlines, use the admissions contact listed there rather than general site search — that is the fastest route to a reliable answer.
