Bachelor of Science - Health and Society (DC209)

This course has been designed to enable students to discover all the aspects of health issues, and learn how to understand, research and act to improve the health of populations. 

During the course, students will encounter many different ways of thinking about and acting on health issues, including biological, social, political, ethical and psychological perspectives. Students will not only learn about different potential career paths, but they’ll also get to focus many projects and other program activities on your own health interests.

Dublin City University Health and Society students participate in a voluntary community project in their first year, then go on to design and implement a health equity campaign in second year. In the final year, students will complete a health research project and write their final dissertation. 

This degree is suitable for anyone who wishes to pursue roles in overseas development, community development and the voluntary sector.
