Overview
Throughout the Public Health and Social Innovation course from University of Strathclyde you will begin by exploring the foundations of public health, learning how health is shaped not just by biology or healthcare, but by social, economic, political, commercial, and environmental forces. From the origins of sanitation and epidemiology to contemporary challenges such as climate change, pandemics, mental health, and health inequalities, you will develop a strong grounding in evidence-based, population-level thinking.
