Course Overview

Health and Social Care provides students with essential subject knowledge and develops core personal and general skills. The broad nature of the degree will support you in gaining employment in some areas, such as health promotion; housing; community-based projects; occupational health; services for the older population, and services for young people.

The health and social care sector is undergoing rapid and radical change. As part of this, we are seeing an increasing number of employers in the sector. Developments in the frontline mean great demand for well-trained and multi-skilled graduates. Some graduates choose to go on to study further. Postgraduate courses offered by the University include MA in Social Policy, MA in Social Work, and MA in Youth and Community Work.

The School has strong links with various organizations actively involved in the health and social care field. The program provides opportunities to engage with various employers through work experience, guest speakers, and applied community research projects.

Work Placement Opportunities

In your second year, you complete a work-based learning project, where you spend a minimum of 50 hours getting work experience and then produce a reflective portfolio. This project enables you to gain vital practical skills and knowledge necessary for a health and social care career.

SALA

The Service and Leadership Award (SALA) is offered as an extra-curricular program involving service-based experiences, development of leadership potential, and equipping you for a career in a rapidly changing world. It enhances your degree; it is complimentary but different and has a distinct ‘value-added’ component. Find out more on our Service and Leadership Award page.
