The Institute has come a long way in the last three decades in working in the field of health in terms
of training, research and extension. Started as a one-semester programme on Certificate in
Hospital Administration in 1980, today, the Institute boasts of 4 postgraduate degree programmes,
two doctoral programmes and three diploma programmes in the field of health. The alumni of these
programmes are occupying leadership positions in the health sector in India and abroad.
This year, 4 postgraduate degree programme students will be attending campus placement. While
MHA (Health) students are equipped to undertake leadership role in planning and implementing
healthcare programmes in the government and non-government sectors, MHA (Hospital) students
are trained to take up leadership role in hospitals and hospital consultancy organizations. In
addition, both the programme students are trained in health related sectors like insurance and
information technology. The students have very strong understanding of their respective health and
hospital fields and are strongly moulded and mentored in managing health and hospital
organizations. There are 36 students in the MHA (Health) programme and 41 students in the MHA
(Hospital) programme.
Master of Public Health (MPH) in Social Epidemiology is a unique programme in the sense, the
focus of the programme is on social epidemiology. The students have very strong orientation
in research skills and have good understanding of the epidemiology of both communicable and
non-communicable diseases. These students will be excellent researchers and analysts in public
health field. There are 28 students in this programme. MPH in Health Policy, Economics and
Finance is relatively a new programme and the fourth batch will be passing out this year. This
programme is developed in collaboration with London School of Economics (LSE). These
students have strong orientation in economic evaluation of health programmes and
interventions and have excellent skills in health policy research and analysis. There are 16
students in this programme for campus placement.
The strength of all our programmes is strong emphasis on practical training and research skills.
Every semester, the students are placed in organizations and communities related to their
respective fields to understand and learn the real world, where they will be employed later. These
students are ready to take-up the challenges before them in the health sector. Without hesitation, I
can vouch that these students are going to make a positive difference and impact on the
organizations that are going to recruit them. I wish them all success.

Introduction
MASTER OF HOSPITAL ADMINISTRATION
Hospitals and healthcare facility providers as we see them today; are becoming some of the most
complex and fluid organizations to manage in the times to come. This was a challenge, foreseen early by
the faculty at the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, who were thus among the pioneers in instituting a full-
fledged Masters in Hospital Administration in 1993 which to date remains one of the most coveted
training programs this sector has seen. In the increasingly competitive arena of healthcare management
education, the TISS strives to maintain its tradition of academic excellence whilst simultaneously
working to radically transform its academic culture and spirit as is captured in its tryst towards Re-
imagining Futures.
Innovative and dynamic classroom teaching along with challenge based learning during the Internships
puts hospital administration program at par with International teaching standards. This is what shapes
one of the finest professionals of the country, striving to serve and lead the hospital and healthcare
industry. The basis underlying the course framework is the fundamental understanding of hospitals as
socially, structurally, technologically and financially sensitive organizations employing a myriad mix of
some of the most skilled and semi-skilled human resource. Along with a strong emphasis on their
theoretical base, students are tested for their conceptual clarity through class presentations, case
studies and group tasks simulating decision making in the hospital environment. Keeping in with the
pace of the industry, the course content is continuously reviewed and revised to keep abreast of
necessary developments whether it is Hospital management information systems, Health insurance or
Business development strategies for hospitals.
With that, the students would undergo six months of arduous internships across some of the best
hospitals in the country and simultaneously undertake individual projects addressing some of the
relevant concerns or advancements in healthcare.
Internships
What the mind does not know, the eyes do not see Keeping this very maxim in mind, the sequence of theory
subjects and internships has been framed to ensure that students know exactly what they are expected to learn
and apply during each of the three, eight-week long internships that they would be credited for in the course of
their degree.
After studying key fundamental subjects like Health Economics and Finance, Hospital Planning, Administration
of Clinical and Support services & Materials management, at the end of their second semester students are
posted in their first internship at major public hospitals in Mumbai like King Edward Memorial (KEM) Hospital,
BYL Nair Hospital, Sion Hospital, Tata Memorial Hospital, MGM Vashi, BARC Hospital, Holy Family Hospital,
Cooper Hospital, Prince Aly Khan Hospital and D Y Patil Hospital to name a few. Students would understand the
hospital as a system and take up four clinical and support departments each for detailed analysis and report
preparation. Additionally the students also take up case studies / assignments in concurrence with hospital
authorities, thereby making meaningful contribution.
By the end of their third semester, they cover Operations research, Strategic management in Healthcare
settings, Legal framework for hospitals Quality management and Medical technology management before they
start their second internship in large & renowned trust hospitals across the country like CMC Vellore, Sir
Gangaram Hospital, P. D. Hinduja, Breachcandy, KokilabenDhirubhaiAmbani Hospital, Ruby Hall, Aditya Birla
Hospital etc. This time, the students undertake three case studies in various areas of operations, Gap analysis for
accreditation, patient satisfaction levels, turnaround time for reports, inventory control systems, etc. with
practical recommendations that can be implemented.
After covering, Health Insurance, Systems Development & Information Resource Management, Marketing and
Business Development Strategies in last semester, the third internship places students in some of the largest
healthcare corporations in the country like the Apollo Group of Hospitals, the Fortis Group, the Max Group,
Manipal Group of Hospitals, Aster DM etc. In this posting they undertake specific micro-level assessment like
modules for staff training, feasibility and marketing plans for new service or hospitals, working on actual HMIS
databases and process reengineering for departments.
Before students embark on their professional journey, they serve uncompensated in their choice of healthcare
organizations like charitable hospitals, NGOs, consultancies, healthcare IT or insurance companies for a whole
month rendering their knowledge and skills as they would in the organizations they would soon join.
Management is efficiency in climbing the ladder of success;
leadership determines whether the ladder is leaning against
the right wall.

Research projects at the Master's level offer students the opportunity to plan and conduct original
investigation in an area of study with the guidance of faculty members of the Institute as well as
experts from the industry.
Each student is expected to take up an area of choice that he/she would work on for two years under the
guidance of both school faculty as well as industry experts to produce a report that is credited at the end
of the course. It is referred to as a 'Research Project' as the student is preferably expected to maintain a
practical approach with scientific research base towards the topic.
The research project is an attempt to enable the student either to explore &analyze a new trend in
healthcare or to work on specific area affecting hospital functioning on a professional basis after
completion of the degree. After defining study objectives, the project involves relevant and actual data
collection from hospitals that further enhances the field exposure for the students. The report focuses
on providing an in-depth understanding of the issue and most importantly, on providing working
recommendations and implementable action plans.
Some of the major areas students have attempted to study this year include:
l Quality: Planning, Improvement, Assessment and Evaluation
l Operations and Project Management
l Hospital Planning: Greenfield Hospitals and Energy Savings Measures in Hospitals
l Organizational Behavior in Healthcare Industry
l Human Resource Management in Hospitals and Healthcare
l Information and Communication Technology in Healthcare Industry
l Hospital and Healthcare Marketing
l Business Intelligence and Strategic Management in Hospital and Healthcare
At the end of two year program, course structure at TISS aims at equipping students with the pre-
requisite skills that would enable them to effectively contribute to not only the organization that they
would work for, but also to the healthcare industry at large.

INTRODUCTION
MASTER OF HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
TISS has been offering the Health administration programme since the early 1990s. Since then it has
been the best in its efforts towards transforming the candidates into the finest health managers.
Over the years, the course curriculum has been reinvented and structured to meet the demands of the
dynamic healthcare sector, both public and private. The course curriculum has a shade of social science
along with the foundations of management, which makes it unique, and thus the students are
conditioned to be better management personnel with a sense of social responsibility. This blend comes
from the core management based courses like Principles of Management, Strategic Health care
Management, Operations Research, Financial Management along with very sensitive courses like Social
Science Perspectives on Health, Research Methodology, etc. Thus, the artefact of these academic
courses is what we bring to the healthcare sector with our ingress.
The course also orients the students on macro issues relevant to health policy and programme planning
in the country. The teaching is beyond the four walls of the campus and the faculties are enthusiastic to
impart the best knowledge to the students in various innovative ways adopted by them, like field visits,
classroom exercises based on the topics of practical application which helps students progress better.
The two-year intensive program is designed to develop a cadre of professionals competent enough to
take up key managerial and research positions in the National Health Programmes, the NGO sector,
CSR, Healthcare Consultancies, Health Insurance Firms, Healthcare IT Companies, Research
Organizations, Community based Health Programmes, Pharmaceutical and Medical Instrumentation
Companies by building their capacities in planning, implementing, monitoring and evaluation of
programmes.
We have been successful in attracting the titans of the health sector like WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA,
NHSRC, SHRC, NRHM, NACO, PATH, CARE, Aga Khan Health Services, ICICI, Infosys, PWC,
Reliance Foundation, Johnson & Johnson and Azim Premji Foundation for our recruitments in the past &
have been successful in making it up to their expectations.

INTERNSHIP
TISS believes that translation of theory into practice is the actual purpose of knowledge. Nurtured with
the same idea, internships not only expose the students to the intricacies of healthcare sector but also
provide them with professional competencies in terms of conceptualization and implementation.
Internships have been therefore assigned maximum credits in the Programme.
Meticulously designed three rounds of internships give them a hands-on experience of various aspects
of National Health Programmes, the NGO sector, various Community Health Programmes, a firsthand
exposure to government public health system, with a chance to apply the knowledge and skills they
have gained from their academic experiences. Nevertheless, it enhances communication skills by
working with diverse populations across India.
Selected students get global exposure through the Global Public Health Programme of School of Rural
Public Health (SRPH), Texas A & M University (McAllen Campus), USA under collaboration of TISS and
A & M University Texas.
As a part of internships, students are posted at various renowned organizations like
ALERT India
LEPRA
CARE
Help Age India
AAROHI
Aga Khan Health Services
Smile Foundation
Child in Need Institute (CINI)

and worked on Health Management Information Systems. They have a firsthand experience of
health planning with emphasis on human resource, materials and strategic management.
l The structure and functioning of the Rural Health Service System is studied from the district level
and below.
l Block internship gives an opportunity to the students to work with sectors like Healthcare IT,
Health Insurance, CSR Health, Pharmaceutical Industry and Healthcare Consultancies.
As a part of the internship with rural NGOs, the students have studied the organization profiles
RESEARCH
Research is a mandatory component of the Programme in Master of Health Administration. This by far
has been one of the best learning the students have received from the Institute. The guidance by the
faculty members along with their motivation has proved to be invaluable to the extent of even having
students publishing their research papers in renowned journals.
Exposure of doing research has helped the students to gauge closely the interconnections between the
actual health care practice and the underlying theories in the field of health
HIGHLIGHTS OF INTERNSHIP
Close monitoring and supervision at the internship site by faculty.
l Organizations selected for internship are best in the field of healthcare. These organizations have
tremendously innovated models of healthcare some of which have translated into policies.
l As a part of the internship with urban NGOs, the students have studied the organization profiles,
program development, implementation and monitoring using logical framework analysis and the
process by which the community is engaged using PRA technique.
l Additionally, the government Health Service System (Municipal Corporation of Greater
Mumbai) was studied with respect to its organizational structure at the higher level with special
emphasis on the functioning of Urban Health Post (UHP) and the primary health care delivery
mechanism of urban areas.
Whatever the mind of an individual can conceive and believe, it can achieve

INTRODUCTION
MASTER OF PUBLIC HEALTH SOCIAL EPIDEMIOLOGY
Right from the recommendations of Bhore committee report in 1946, to the recent NHP 2002 and the
NRHM documents, all highlight the importance of training of public health professionals as an essential
requirement for the improvement of the health situation in the country. In wake of the public health
problems being faced by the country in the social, cultural and economic context, there is an increased
need to emphasize on social epidemiology. The Masters of Public health at TISS caters to the need for
trained human power and helps in the building and maintenance of public health with a special focus on
Social Epidemiology. This programme explores elaborately the link between the social determinants
and health of the population along with strong methodological and technical foundation in
epidemiology, biostatistics, quantitative analysis, qualitative analysis and national and international
public health policies. The students are also given courses on health finance, public health management
and health communication so as to be equipped to handle multifaceted roles. This programme is
covered over the span of four semesters, with emphasis given to research related courses and
development of public health paradigms. The eclectic mix of students from various educational
backgrounds and work experiences adds new perspectives and knowledge on various issues pertaining
to public health. Polished by excellent faculty in knowledge and skills to handle all aspects of national and
international public health issues, and further honed in community interaction and research skills by
multiple internships, the course ordains students to shine bright in the public health scene, be it rural or
urban, national or global. Alumni of the course are placed and doing exceptionally well in a variety of
fields and situations such as national and state level government health programmes, surveillance,
monitoring and evaluation organisations and programmes,health advocacy groups, NGOs, CSR,
healthcare consultancies, health insurance firms, healthcare IT companies, research organisations,
community based health programmes, pharmaceutical and medical instrumentation companies.
As epidemiologists, students develop the capability to weigh, balance, contrast and implement, and
over the years, TISS has spawned a generation of superlative public health professionals.
INTERNSHIP
The MPH course consists of 3 internships, one each at the end of second, third and fourth semester.
Each internship duration is of eight weeks.
The first internship primarily focuses on the urban slums of Mumbai. It is designed to give important
insight into the prevailing health issues of urban slums through socio- demographic profiling of the
community. Individual, quantitative studies are carried out on population sub-groups residing in the
community for elaborate understanding. Detailed analysis of several factors such as, socioeconomic
status, health status, morbidity pattern, utilization of health care services and expenditure for
healthcare are undertaken.
Internships also have a dimension of global exposure with selected students getting an exclusive
opportunity to attend international summer internships at University of Minnesota and A & M
University Texas, USA.

The second internship is designed to understand health and its determinants typical to rural
communities. Students are encouraged to carry out research on a public health situation and social
issues pertinent to the particular community and suggest suitable practical recommendations for
improvement. The activities included detailed community mapping, addressing health issues and
qualitatively exploring the social determinants of the particular health problem.

The final block internship towards the end of the curriculum entails every student to work in any
healthcare organization of their choice, without any compensation, for a period of 1 month. This
internship reiterates the ethos of the institute that is ingrained in each student service to the society.
Though the students have been well placed before the period of this internship, they contribute
their theoretical & practical skills to the organization.
DISSERTATION
Research being the core of public health, the entire last semester is dedicated to the dissertation, a
process which commences early in the first semester. Each student is expected to work on a current
and challenging topic. These studies are carried out under the guidance of a designated faculty
member. The dissertation is duly reviewed at each step by the faculty right from the presentation of
the proposal to data collection and to the actual analysis. The studies are qualitative, quantitative or a
mix of both the types. A wide range of health problems ranging from communicable diseases, non-
communicable diseases, reproductive health, geriatrics to women's health issues are covered. The
student applies theoretical knowledge combined with ground level practical experiences to the
selected issue to come up with remarkable results. The data collection, analysis and application help
apply the concept in the field. Students are trained to be proficient in computer programs such as
SPSS, STATA and Atlas ti. Published research carves out a niche for MPH at SHSS, which is known for
its research excellence.

INTRODUCTION
The health system in India is going through a phase of transition that calls for a multidisciplinary
approach towards establishing an efficient and equitable healthcare system. Such an approach needs a
problem solving mindset which takes into consideration all the social, economic, political and financial
challenges. Meeting all these challenges requires personnel with an expertise in critical analysis of issues
within current health policy who can generate evidence base for influencing policy changes and
advocate new policy decisions based on an analysis of current socio economic, political and financial
situation of the country.
The Master of Public Health (MPH) in Health Policy, Economics and Finance, developed by the Tata
Institute of Social Sciences in collaboration with the London School of Economics and Political Science
(LSE), has been designed with a global focus to create a cohort of well trained public health
professionals with a critical perspective on policy makingand an inter sectoral approach towards policy
making and analysis.
The programme, which stretches over a period of two years, offers a perfect blend of both descriptive
and analytical courses. The first two semesters are dedicated to extensive class room training which
includes lectures, seminars, debates and discussions on different aspects and perspectives on the health
system and how each impacts the nature of policies.
It serves as an excellent platform for students from different backgrounds and work experiences to
exchange ideas on critical analysis of various policies and their impact and engage together in this
learning process. The third semester offers an opportunity to observe experience and implement the
conceptsthrough an urban internship and field level intervention in the form of a field practicum. In the
fourth semester, the students dedicate themselves completely towards their research projects.
MPH HEALTH POLICY, ECONOMICS & FINANCE
Happiness is not something readymade,
it comes from your own actions.

INTERNSHIP
At the end of the second semester, when the students have gained all the required academic skills, they
are placed with different Non-Government Organization's in Mumbai for a period of five weeks. During
this period the interns learn about their respective organization's structure, human resource policies,
budgeting and in field programmes. They get an opportunity to cater their skills and knowledge for the
benefit of the organization. Students also take up a research project and study a public health issue of
concern, as identified by them, in a community served by their organization which gives them an insight
about the conditions and concerns of urban poor.
This year, the students were placed in organizations like
l ALERT India
l PATH
l Centre for the Study of Social Change (CSSC),
l SATHI
l Apnalaya,
l Community Outreach Programme (CORP)
l Sanmitra Trust,
This year following students attended the Exchange Programs at various Universities in USA
l 2 Students attended Summer Public Health Institute, University of Minnesota, USA
l 1 Student attended the Summer Global Public Health Program at Texas A & M University, Texas,
USA.
The second internship is a one month block placement towards the end of the curriculum. The students
choose any healthcare organization of their choice and reiterate the ethos of 'service to the society' by
contributing their skills to the community.
Introductory courses like Health Policy and Planning, Health and Health Systems and Social Care Policy,
that are taken in the first semester,instill a basic knowledge and impart an outline structure of the
programme which then progresses towards more technical courses during the second semester. An in-
depth analysis of the dynamics of Pharmaceutical Economics, Health Insurance and Healthcare
Financing along with policy analysis makes this cadre of scholars make a niche in the global healthcare
market. Special emphasis is given to the understanding and application of financing principles and
systematic use of policy research & review in decision making by teaching courses like Economic
Evaluation and Health Policy and Systems Research.
This provides an enhanced training to our professionals for working in various kinds of public health
settings. This also makes them apt for the position of analytical, consulting, advocacy and advisory roles
in public sector bodies, global non-profit organizations, policy consultancies, bilateral and multilateral
aid agencies, health financing institutions, health policy research organizations, and the
pharmaceutical sectors.
This year students were placed in the following organizations for their field practicum:
l
l Directorate of Health Services(NCD Cell, Govt. of Chhattisgarh)
l National Program for Prevention & Control of Cancer, Diabetes, Cardio-Vascular
Diseases & Stroke (NPCDCS, Washim&Chandrapur Districts of Maharashtra)
l Alert India (TB program, Mumbai)
l Haryana State Health Resource Centre (HSHRC)
l NRHM (Palakkad, Kerala)
l PusphaMaa Foundation( Mumbai)
l AasthaParivar(Mumbai)
l Rajiv Gandhi JeevandayeeArogyaYojana (RGJAY, Mumbai)
l Apnalaya (Mumbai)
l Institute of Health Management Pachod (IHMP)(Pune)
l SNEHA Organisation(Mumbai)
l M-East Ward Transformation Project, TISS (Mumbai).
Directorate of Medical & Health Services (Rajasthan)
Research has been one of the primary focuses of the programme where the entire last semester is
dedicated for same. The institute's faculty, acclaimed for their research expertise, refines the skills of
the scholars with respect to both the qualitative and quantitative research which enables them to
develop evidence based thinking. Varied issues are taken up by the scholars related to health policy and
health systems, economic evaluation of ongoing health programs, Health Insurance. The relationship
between research and health policy is discussed from a policy process perspective.
Research
Field Practicum
A full semester, on field experience delivers a unique 'Learning by Doing' opportunity for testing
implied knowledge learnt during exhaustive first year of the programme. The scholars get a chance to
be placed with reputed organizations and apply their academic learning in studying the working of their
respective organizations right from the developmental milestones to the outcomes of various
programmes. The approach aims at critical review of policy, developing perspectives and
conceptualizations to policy/programmes, engaging with diverse stakeholders especially community,
learn intervention skills, intervene with regard to policy/programme implementation and reviewing
the intervention to make suitable recommendations for Policy/programme development. It marks the
transition for the scholars from theory to practice offering themprofessional growth with appropriate
knowledge, skills, attitudes and values to promote public health policy and practice using the domain of
health economics and finance.
