The course is modular. Level 1 provides a foundation to the course as a whole. The final core module is designed to foster integration of the subject matter being delivered across the course. Career Prospects Graduates from the course enter a wide variety of occupations. Many go on to do further post-graduate course, for example, in Health Education and Health Promotion.
Many students also move into careers in counselling and community health services.
Methods A range of teaching and learning methods are employed at all levels. Staff-student contact time is greater at level 1 than at levels 2 and 3. At level 1 a firm foundation is provided through a series of lectures and seminars in the various disciplines. Assessment Methods Modules are assessed individually. A mixture of examinations, written assignments, contributions to seminars, case studies, oral and poster presentations etc., is used, with the nature of the assessments reflecting the content of each module.
