Cardiff Metropolitan University | Prifysgol Metropolitan Caerdydd
Through this exciting undergraduate degree, students will explore three core themes: Adult Health and Social Care, Child Health and Social Care, and Global issues in Health and Social Care.
Students will be taught by expert lecturers who are actively involved in cutting edge research in the field, meaning that they will stay up to date with key ideas and practices that shape the health and social care sector. Students will also hear from a variety of guest speakers from the sector including Health and Social Care Wales.
At Level 5, students will gain a highly regarded Level 5 Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) qualification, and take part in work-based learning, giving graduates valuable real-world experience of the health and social care sector. Placement settings include local and central government, third sector organisations, the NHS, drug and alcohol services and the St John Ambulance. At Level 6, the innovative social entrepreneurship module, provides an opportunity for students to propose an intervention to address a pressing health and social care issue, giving them the tools needed to create positive change in the sector.
There is a strong emphasis on creative research methods in each year of study, so students understand the connection between health and social care industry discoveries, leading to research, and subsequent government funded policies. This fully prepares students for an academic research poster exhibition and their dissertation on a relevant topic of their choosing in the final year.
On completion, the Health and Social Care degree at Cardiff Met will open up a wide range of career paths including working in the voluntary, charitable and private sectors.
