Location of University of Greenwich

The Health packages have been developed to meet the educational needs of individuals who are interested in obtaining a degree in a discipline that encompasses a wide range of health-related fields. It focuses on three themes: the healthy individual; concepts of health; and the context within which individual health is defined and affected, including local and national policies.

In the first year you study concepts of health, the physiological basis of health and an introduction to public health. These are developed further in the following year, and in the final year, you undertake a critical review of the research literature on a health-related issue and examine the management of health. In the final year, you also have the opportunity to study health promotion, medical sociology, health policy, health care ethics and law and the global context of public health.

Health courses are taught by the School of Health and Social Care at the Avery Hill campus. Depending on your selected combination you may be required to travel between campuses.

Requirements

Entry requirements for combined honours degrees are the same as for single honours, with the additional requirement that combinations that include mathematics must have A-level mathematics or equivalent. For combinations that include a language, a minimum of a GCSE at grade C may be required in that language.

Entry Requirements - Degree Programmes
For degree programmes we ask for at least 160 UCAS points. These can be made up from the following:

* a maximum of 60 points may be obtained from AS-levels or ASVCEs alone; at least 100 points should be obtained from A-levels or AVCEs (formerly AGNVQs;
* or at least 12 A-level points, if taken before 2002;
* or an Advanced GNVQ with a minimum Merit profile (if taken before 2002);
* or a BTEC National Diploma at MPP
* or an International Baccalaureate, with at least 24 points

In addition, we normally require at least three GCSEs at grade C or above (including English and mathematics) or equivalent, for example, a Key Skills qualification.

Language skills
If English is not your first language, you will need to provide proof of your fluency in English before you can begin a programme. The main systems for measuring this are IELTS with a minimum score of 6.0 for degree programmes or TOEFL with a minimum score of 550 for degree programmes. Recently the TOEFL computer-based test has been abolished to make way for the introduction of the Internet-based test, gradually eliminating the traditional paper-based method. Other qualifications may be satisfactory. We can tell you what is acceptable.

Additional Requirements

Minimal degree required: High School diploma
Minimal amount of work experience Not specified

Language Proficiency

IELTS Band: 6.0
Cambridge English: Advanced (CAE): Grade C (Score: 60)
TOEFL Paper-based: 550
