Health Sciences

About this course

Health sciences is a broad interdisciplinary field that draws on biology, anatomy, physiology, and the behavioural and social sciences to understand how the human body functions, how health is maintained, and how disease and injury are diagnosed and treated. It provides a scientific foundation relevant to a wide range of healthcare and health-related careers, covering the biological systems that regulate the body, the mechanisms of illness, and the principles of clinical and forensic practice.
