What it isHealth Sciences is a broad program combining study of how health systems work, the use of technology and data in healthcare, and social policy that shapes health outcomes. It differs from biology or medicine by focusing on the bigger picture of health delivery and policy rather than pure life sciences or direct clinical training. It suits students interested in healthcare careers beyond clinical practice, like health administration, public health, or health technology roles.This program combines science study with teacher education, so you earn qualifications to teach science in secondary school while completing your degree. Unlike a regular science degree followed by teacher training, you work toward both goals at the same time, with coursework in science disciplines alongside education theory and practice teaching. It suits students who know they want to teach and want to study science deeply rather than broadly.
