Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Health and Social Care (Placement Year)

Bangor University

The Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Health and Social Care will provide students with an in-depth understanding of the health and social care policies, theory and practice and they will gain the skills needed to be able to work effectively in a multidisciplinary environment.

In line with today’s fast-changing care sector, the emphasis during this course will be on the social experiences of health and care and the delivery and management of services. Students will learn how the provision and delivery of these services is influenced by society and the economy as well as by political and ethical factors. The course will focus on providing them with detailed understanding of the key contemporary issues that will shape their health and society and therefore the well-being of individuals and their communities. They will also develop the critical and analytical skills that underpin evidence-based practice.
