Course Description
BSc (Hons) Health and Social Care with Foundation Year in Health in partnership with Leeds Trinity University is a 4-year course where the student has an opportunity to explore the inherent links between health and wellbeing as well as the issues shaping the healthcare agenda nationally and globally. On this course, the student will study key themes including psychological interventions and alternative therapies, social prescribing for diverse community groups, multi-agency working, managing long-term conditions, and developing leadership and enterprise in healthcare settings. Following successful completion of the Foundation Year, the student will progress onto Year 1 of the Health and Social Care BSc (Hons) degree. This route is for students who do not have the necessary qualifications or don’t yet feel ready to begin degree-level study or are returning to education and would like some support to get up to speed with learning in a university setting. The Foundation Year in Health will allow the student to develop necessary academic skills and confidence as well as provide an introduction to key concepts, debates and skills that will support and inform subsequent years of student’s undergraduate study.
