The Global Health Academy at the University of Edinburgh aims to improve global health and make life better through collaborative, interdisciplinary research, education and resource development.

The Academy, which has members within the University and across the world, encompasses all three Colleges across the University and is built on three pillars of activity in which the University excels:
· World-leading academic qualifications
· Collaborative research
· Global networks and partnerships

The Global Health Academy is involved in a number of networks and partnerships, locally, nationally and internationally.
Many of the institutes and centres associated with the GHA offer opportunities for prospective postgraduate study, global collaborative research and knowledge exchange.
