Abstract
Objective: Aim: To determine the opinions of master's graduates in Public Health regarding the quality of the educational process and its impact on employment and further professional activities.
Patients and methods: Materials and Methods: The study utilized bibliosemantic, sociological, medical-statistical methods, and content analysis. The research materials included scientific publications, national-level regulatory legal acts, WHO programme documents, and sociological research questionnaires. The programme involved sociological surveys of graduates of the Master's Programme in Public Health. Statistical processing of sociological survey results was carried out by calculating the standard error and confidence interval.
Results: Results: Anonymous surveys revealed that 94.1% of the 2024 graduates of the Master's Programme in Public Health at Bogomolets National Medical University were employed. Their assessment of the quality of educational services was high (82.4%) and fairly high (17.6%), which was ensured by obtaining in-depth theoretical knowledge (93.8%), acquiring essential practical skills (93.8%), and developing the necessary competencies (100%). High learning outcomes were achieved due to the quality of the educational programme content (98.3%), the possibility of forming an individual learning trajectory, modern teaching methods (88.2%), the high qualification of teaching staff (100%), practical orientation (94.1%), integration of education and research (94.1%), adherence to academic integrity (94.1%), an adequate educational environment (82.4%), and comprehensive student support (94.1%-100%). The feedback from master's graduates serves as an essential foundation for improving the training process for public health professionals.
Conclusion: Conclusions: Master's graduates in Public Health highly evaluate the quality of the educational programme and the overall educational process, emphasising their positive and decisive impact on employment. The obtained data allow for a comprehensive assessment of learning outcomes, the dissemination of best practices, and the resolution of problematic issues. Additionally, they help determine ways to improve the Master's Programme in Public Health and the educational process in general to ensure the competitiveness of graduates.
