Overview

The Health and Social Inclusion program at Dublin City University, the first of its kind in Ireland, is designed to give you the knowledge and skills you will need to tackle healthcare inequity and social exclusion, which can devastate community health and social wellbeing.

During this highly practical programme, you will be encouraged to volunteer in the sector if you are not already working in it full-time. Most students come from a health or social care background, from psychiatric nurses to charity workers, so you will benefit from group discussion and hands-on learning involving varying disciplines and perspectives.

Career Prospects

When you graduate, you will be sought after in a range of sectors including health and social care settings, health promotion, health-related statutory services, non-governmental organisations and policy making. Alternatively, you may choose to pursue further doctorate-level studies.

Courses include:

Frameworks And Strategies For Tackling Health Inequities And Social Exclusion
