Public health is considered the science and art of promoting and protecting health and wellbeing, preventing ill health and prolonging life through the organised efforts of society.This course aims to provide you with a solid grounding for building a career in health and social-care-related disciplines if you are unable to follow the more traditional route onto a degree course.The foundation year aims to provide the skills and knowledge relevant for progression onto a degree in health, social work or social care in the statutory, voluntary or private sectors.With increased attention from government on the improvement of population health, this is an excellent time to study the underlying factors that contribute to ill health and how you as a practitioner can work to promote health and wellbeing, as well as tackle the social inequalities within the localities you serve.If you choose to leave the degree course after successfully passing Year 1, you will be eligible for a Higher National Certificate (HNC) in Public Health and Community Studies. If you choose to leave the degree course after successfully passing Year 2, you will be eligible for a Higher National Diploma (HND) in Public Health and Community Studies.For the most up-to-date information about course modules, sandwich years or part-time learning, please visit our website.
