MSC vs. M.P.H
Differences between MSc and M.P.H:-
There are a lot of professional degrees that people pursue these days.
With the development of meritocracy, being among the toppers has become the ultimate goal of most of the students.
Furthermore, as they gain an understanding of which field can be the most beneficial for them,
they might not necessarily do their postgraduate studies (MSc or M.P.H), on the same subject as their bachelor’s.
What does it mean by MSC?
Whenever we use the term MSc, we are generally talking about the degree known as Masters of Sciences (also known as just MS).
Note: MSc is actually a postgraduate degree.
Whenever a person enrolls into a college or university after college, she or he starts off as a bachelor or is said to be at an undergraduate level.
Once he completes his bachelor’s degree, he might want to pursue his studies at the postgraduate level.
In a lot of countries, however, MSc is like the experts’ level of study in virtually any science subject such as medicine or engineering.
Whereas, all of the experts' diplomas come under the term MS
When we talk about the M.P.H, we are generally referring to the Masters of Public Health.
It is a multi-disciplinary professional level, which addresses multiple subjects and domains, as long as they are concerned with public health.
The primary concentration of the MPH level is public health practice rather than instructing or research.

On the other hand, M.P.H is related to public health. Like MSc, MPH is also equal to a postgraduate level degree.
