CSC Grants

In 2002, the CSC established a collaboration agreement with Universidad Pompeu Fabra with the intention of promoting training in public health as a strategy to support the management of health services. By virtue of this agreement, which was modified and renewed in 2016, the CSC awards two annual scholarships to facilitate the participation of as many health professionals who wish to take the Master's in Public Health and one scholarship for those who wish to take the Online Postgraduate Course in Public Health. The scholarships, which represent the payment of two thirds of the tuition fee (66%), are awarded by means of a public announcement in which those pre-registered in the Master's or Postgraduate course who request them can participate.

Master's in Public Health

The beneficiaries of the grant carry out Dissertation Research (TFM) in the fields of action of the CSC and its associates: health policies, organization and management of health and social services (hospitals, primary health care, social health care, care for dependency, etc.) and public health at the municipal level, collaborating with some of its departments and associates and, frequently, under the direction of the Service of Studies and Prospects in Health Policy.

The main criteria considered in the selection process are:

  • Provenance: priority is given to workers from associated institutions or institutions managed by CSC and Latin American students.
  • The interest shown in the areas of health policy, organization and management of health and social services (hospitals, primary care, social health, etc.) and / or public health at the municipal level.

Since its establishment, a total of 15 students from Latin America and Catalonia have elaborated their TFM on topics related to the integration of health services and attention to the immigrant population.
