Overview
On this Public Health (Hons) course at University of Wolverhampton is specifically designed to fulfil this need through the educational aim of developing the specific knowledge and skills you will need for effective public health practice.
Public health has always been popular but awareness of the work of public health professionals and the range of roles available in this field has increased since the Covid-19 pandemic. In light of the impact of the pandemic on public health practice both now and in the future, we have reviewed and strengthened our public health programme so you can be prepared to address these challenges.
Key facts
- Success against key public health issues and diseases has no geographical boundaries, and our students may come from a variety of countries, so we also draw on wider international public health policy and priorities.
- As such, this three-year course adopts a strong focus on addressing health inequalities, empowering individuals and communities, and building the skills needed for a pro-active public health workforce.
- By focusing on socio-ecological models of health rather than just medical and epidemiological ones, our public health programme is able to offer a new, modern and global understanding of public health that reflects the changes and developments witnessed in current and future health services both in the UK and overseas.
