• Health Science is interested in the improvement, maintenance and prevention of illness. There are two parts to health science: the study, research, and knowledge of health and the application of that knowledge to improve wellbeing and improve health services.
  • Health Sciences has a long tradition of partnership-working with employers such as the NHS and patient and public representatives to design courses that have impact for students and services alike.
  • Healthcare systems are complex, and improvement challenges are usually multifaceted. Leading health science academic departments bring experience of working with professionals and health services, together with world-leading research in healthcare improvement, to help service managers identify changes and evidence-based solutions that can lead to real world improvements in the delivery of healthcare.
