Programa

The Public Health and Health Promotion degree is designed to provide an understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of health promotion and public health, and enables students to experience health promotion in practice, and gain theoretical knowledge and apply it to practice - facilitating both their personal and professional development.

This programme focuses on public health and is both research-led and practice driven.

With an established working relationship between the course leader and Public Health Wales, the course develops students’ skills to provide others with health information and the support necessary to achieve change and to influence health policy at all levels. The programme covers current practice, historical background, and current developments in health and innovation and health promotion practice. A particular strength of the course is the short placement module, enabling students to experience an alternative area of practice as part of their development of both ‘knows how’ and ‘shows how’ competence.

This programme is designed to meet the needs of health promotion practitioners at level 5 and above and the developing public health agenda. The course is mapped to the National Occupational Standards for the Practice of Public Health and the Public Health Career Framework competencies.
