MSc Public Health (London campus)

University of Sunderland, Sunderland

What a first year actually costs

Tuition is rarely the number that decides anything. This is the whole first year, including the costs that usually surface late.

TuitionPer year, as published by the university	$24,300
Living costsAccommodation, food, transport — a working estimate	$10,000
Student visaGovernment fee, one-off	$620
Health insuranceTypically mandatory for international students	$1,000
First year, all in	$35,920

Not in the table above: The insurance line is the Immigration Health Surcharge, billed UP FRONT for the whole visa plus 4 months — a 1-yr master's pays ~18 months' worth before arrival, not annually.

University of Sunderland publishes this fee as GBP 18,000 a year. The dollar figures above are converted, so treat them as approximate and quote the published amount when you apply.

After you graduate

Graduates of this program are eligible for 18-mo Graduate Route in UK. Work rights are set by government policy rather than the university, and they change — check the current rules before you rely on them.

What the headline leaves outCut from 2 yrs to 18 months by Statement of Changes HC 1333 (14 Oct 2025), applying to any Graduate visa application made on or after 1 Jan 2027 — the date that counts is when you apply, not when the course started. PhDs keep 3 yrs. Graduate visa costs GBP 937.
