Post Graduate Entry into Public Health

Hi, I'm a finalist undergraduate at Cambridge studying Biological Natural Sciences, specialising this year in biological anthropology. I'm really interested in getting into a career in public health but I can't afford a masters even with sfe loans unfortunately. I've researched everywhere but I can only find degree level internships and nothing except sites telling me I need a masters.
Any advice?

Sorry, I know this is an oldish thread but have you looked at the part-time/online MPH offerings? Lots of them have tuition fees that come in below the SFE post-grad fees threshold, so you wouldn't have to top up tuition and you could work alongside to pay your living expenses. The top tier universities offer online programmes to home students but the tuition fees are above the threshold, so would need to be topped up by quite a bit. However, if you look a bit further down the rankings and choose a course that is APHEA accredited, you'll be safe. An MPH is an MPH, pretty much.
