Bachelor of Public Health and Health Promotion

This program provides specialist training in public health and health promotion skills. It aims to assist students to gain skills in industry-recognised competencies, allowing them to understand and act upon those factors which cause poor health and those factors which create and sustain good health, such as planning and evaluation, health communication strategies, epidemiology, and research skills. This is a growing field, with graduates finding exciting government and private sector roles across Australia and internationally. Throughout the program, students will develop a wide range of knowledge and practical skills, such as generating and utilising evidence for public health and health promotion practice; skills in program design, implementation, and evaluation; and developing of tools to analyse public health and health promotion policy.
