Program overview
What Canterbury Christ Church University says about their program:
Gain the knowledge, skills, and adaptability to work in public health settings, and the wider health and wellbeing economy.
Public Health is about the theory and practice of preventing disease and promoting good health and wellbeing. It does this through specific actions and interventions, planned health provision, policies, and legislation. It can target or help individuals but more often is delivered at population level, for example in a specific geographical region or for a specific group , or community.
This course will provide you with knowledge about how health is created and influenced in the settings of our daily lives, holistically exploring theoretical constructs of health, a range of health improvement and protective measures, in addition to sustainability, climate change, and policy.
Our course aims to provide you with work-related experiences. As a graduate of this degree, you will have the foundational knowledge required to address future health-needs with creativity, innovation, and resilience.
