Public and Environmental Health - BSc(Hons)

You will study a range of modules, including:

• Public Health Futures
• Risk Management and Systems
• Professional Practice
• Public Health Project

Please also note this structure is for the full-time course delivery only. For part-time delivery, the same modules will be studied. However, the structure will differ.

The University continually enhances our offer by responding to feedback from our students and other stakeholders, ensuring the curriculum is kept up to date and our graduates are equipped with the knowledge and skills they need for the real world. This may result in changes to the course. If changes to your course are approved, we will inform you.

Your learning outcomes will be integrated across the course and met through a variety of methods, including lectures, seminars, residential trips and visits, practicals, case studies, problem based learning exercises, tutorials and work based learning. This will take place alongside an element of technology-enhanced learning to complement your studies, which will be fully supported by the excellent library and online resources, both at the College and UWE Bristol.

There will be substantial scheduled learning for each module. Along with this, small groups will facilitate individual interaction with your tutors. Additional support is available and an open-door policy exists for student support.

For more details, see our full glossary of learning and teaching terms.

Each module has an expectation of a further four hours per week independent study as well as hours of study for assignments, presentations and examinations. The research project is a substantial piece of work into an area of public or environmental health of particular interest to you that will require in the region of 200 hours of independent study.

Assessment methods include poster defence, essays, professional interview, professional portfolio alongside traditional examinations and professional examinations (e.g. practical food inspection).
