Overview ​Public Health and Individual Wellbeing are two contemporary mainstream areas of employment that pose a challenge to western societies like the UK, but also globally.

The Leeds Trinity University Public Health and Individual Wellbeing programme is distinct in its integration of the interdisciplinary study of determinants, patterns and effects of global, national, regional and community health alongside the personal responses, behaviours and choices that partly define us as individual people. This programme will enable you to get a good understanding and develop your experience in applications in both of these important areas of study.

    Additional information

    Course Information ​The prevalence and incidence of many of the major illnesses and diseases that are the largest causes of morbidity and mortality are the result of poor lifestyle in western cultures like the UK, which are related to poor food choices and diet, sedentary behaviour and a lack of habitual physical activity, smoking, stress and social and mental health. There are also strong interrelationships between Public Health and Individual Wellbeing and the level of poverty, deprivation, unemployment, stress and mental health. As a result, Public Health and Individual Wellbeing will continue to be important in contemporary society. The programme will require study from an interdisciplinary perspective, which will help equip you with many key transferable skills that will stand you in good stead whatever career choice you make.
