As China is actively participating in global health governance in multiple dimensions at multiple levels, Chinese education on global health requires optimizing the curriculum system, strengthening the discipline construction, and improving students' literacy of global health. This study compared two postgraduate courses on global health, Global Health Study: Principles and Practice and Global Health Leadership in Practice, in terms of teaching objectives, course contents, teaching methods, and teaching evaluation. We analyzed the advantages and limitations in the current global heath curriculum, and explored course construction and improvement. We hope to provide a reference for improving the curriculum, teaching, and talent cultivation in the field of global health.
