The School hosts four University-Recognised Research groupings:

1. Centre for Infectious Diseases Epidemiology and Research (CIDER)
2. Centre for Environmental and Occupational Health Research (CEOHR)
3. Health Economics Unit (HEU)
4. Women’s Health Research Unit (WHRU)

A substantial body of research is also conducted in the eight disciplinary divisions of the School. The research questions derive from local and regional public health priorities – HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, cervical cancer, occupational and environmental lung disease, health care access and financing, health and human rights, social and behavioural aspects of health and many more.

This enables the School to sustain a range of research projects, from student initiated dissertation research to multicentre trials, many of these in collaboration with local and international partners.
