Course summary

Public health is the science that aims to improve populations' health by designing and taking measures to prevent disease and protect and promote health and wellbeing. The Covid-19 pandemic and climate change have led to the importance of public health receiving greater recognition. Our new Public Health BSc equips you with a range of practical skills and knowledge which could be applied to a range of careers, particularly those in public health, aiming to improve and protect the health of individuals, communities and populations. The course has been created with input from key stakeholders in the public health industry, ensuring that you’ll develop the skills and knowledge desired by employers in the field. You'll explore the links between theory and practice, recognising the wide range of stakeholders involved in public health. Assessments will be based on real work-based scenarios, helping you to gain experience of working in public health. The combination of modules available allow you to explore a range of possible career paths, including environmental health, digital technologies and data analysis, public health nutrition and global public health. This course explores the factors contributing to the health and wellbeing of individuals, communities and populations including the influence of social, cultural, environmental, lifestyle and economic factors. You’ll interrogate the integrity of information sources to develop an evidence-based practice, utilising relevant research methods and assess the effects of policies on public health with an emphasis on tackling inequalities in populations. You’ll graduate with an understanding of modern digital technologies and a range of media platforms used to promote and deliver public health messages. Our postgraduate courses in health also give you the opportunity to further your studies after graduation.
