Master of Arts in Population and Sexual and Reproductive Health
Population and sexual and reproductive health are crucial aspects of development. However, in many developing countries, where improvement in population well-being is most needed, there is a lack of trained personnel with high-level research skills and adequate theoretical understanding. In response to this need, the Institute for Population and Social Research (IPSR), Mahidol University drawing on its 40-years research and teaching experience, offers a graduate training program in Population and Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH).
This Program is designed to provide training in the art and science of understanding population and SRH issues and collecting, evaluating, and analyzing relevant information. It is designed for individuals working in population, sexual and reproductive health and HIV and AIDS programs and other related areas in academic institutions. Students are exposed to a wide range of theoretical and applied research with special emphasis on socio-cultural issues related to population and SRH.

The Institute of Population and Social Research (IPSR), Mahidol University is one of the globally recognized universities given the advanced research endeavor and academic programs. I feel proud of myself to be the first graduate from Mongolia back in 2000 with Masterâs Degree in Population and Social Research. Since then, plethora of Mongolian researchers and young fellows have been labeled with the IPSR as leaders both in local and foreign setting. Therefore, I would like to extend my sincere gratitude for the professors and academic community of IPRS for enabling knowledge sharing opportunities and continuous partnership.

I truly enjoyed and valued our time of studying in IPSR of Mahidol University. It was a great opportunity to have a warm learning environment with academic & practicable curriculum, good facility, and supportive Ajarns, coordinators and staffs. During our time in Salaya campus, we not only could share our experiences and support each other among international students but also could explore Thai culture and life styles with Thai friends. If you aim for quality learning experience in demography & reproductive health in nice & supportive environment, IPSR is the place to be.
