What will you study?


Studying our Integrated Health and Social Care BSc (Hons) course will equip you with in-depth knowledge and skills in the areas of sociology, population health and health inequalities. You will explore the Foundations of Health and Social Care Practice while discussing the historical importance and explore the contemporary developments of the health and social care sector. This will allow you to address the needs of people in the UK in health contexts, including for vulnerable people or people with protected characteristics, while considering the current legislation and policies that shape health and social care practice. Building on this, you will study the interaction between society, health and illness in our Sociology of Health unit that will introduce you to the various social determinants, such as race and ethnicity, class, gender, etc., that influence health outcomes and disparities. You will also examine the various sociological theories that can elucidate these disparities. At the same time, Inclusivity and Diversity in Health will better your understanding of equity, diversity and inclusion in public healthcare by equipping you with the knowledge, skills and attitudes to address systemic barriers that impact health outcomes for marginalised communities. To prepare you with the essential skills and competencies needed for effective learning throughout your degree, you will also study Introduction to Academic Skills.

You will build on this knowledge in your second year with our unit in Integrated and Inter-professional Responses to Care across the Lifespan that will provide you with a deeper understanding of how systems and processes respond to needs and mitigate health inequities and inequalities in health and social care delivery. Furthermore, you will expand your study to areas such as our unit in Living with Mental Health Conditions that will give you an insight into what it means to live with a mental health condition and to be a recipient of mental health care. This will be crucial to your practice, as you will learn to provide appropriate support based on the main sociological and psychiatric perspectives of mental illness that this unit will expose you to. As an opportunity to apply your skills, you will undertake Work Based Experience in Health and Social Care that comprises of 300-hours of work-focused learning and virtual placement experience. Among our optional units, you may choose to develop a theoretical understanding of addictive behaviours in our Addictions and Society unit such as gambling, gaming, substance misuse, pornography and food. Our unit in Population Health Management will allow you to focus on key concepts of population health such as health inequalities, groups at risk, service delivery and the wider determinants of health. Alternatively, you may choose to explore Social Prescribing, its concepts, processes and approaches to promote social change.

In your final year, you will examine the process of Safeguarding in Health and Social Care to identify the possible and wider risks of harm as well as the strengths and limitations of safeguarding legislation. You will also consider the diverse needs of populations, inequity and factors contributing to health inequalities in our Leading Improvement in Health and Care Services unit. This will allow you to navigate the tools used to enhance, improve and design services to mitigate inequities while developing the leadership skills to bring about this change. Our optional units in Year 3 include Young People, The Urban Environment and Social Determinants of Health, where you will explore the relationship between the socio-economic environment and young lives in the city. Alternatively, you may be interested in exploring health issues that affect an ageing population with our unit in Health and Social Care in an Ageing Society. Here, you will focus on key challenges including dementia care, palliative care, and the provision of pensions and age-related benefits for older people. In areas of technology, our unit in Digital Health will allow you to explore the emerging technological innovations in the healthcare field and learn to apply this to different healthcare settings to address inequalities and improve services. You may also choose to study our unit in Promoting Better Health Outcomes that will enable you to critically appraise strategies and campaigns in promoting health and wellbeing.

Finally, you will have the choice of completing a SASS Change Maker Project Dissertation or Research Dissertation where you will develop and demonstrate academic and professional skills. In the project-based dissertation, you will have the opportunity to work with a community-based organisation to deliver a project while building on your research, presentation and project management skills. If you choose to undertake a research dissertation, this gives you an opportunity to develop a research proposal, consider the ethical implications of your work and conduct an in-depth, focused research enquiry around an area of professional interest. To equip you with the research skills in the field of social sciences, you will explore debates and theories in social research, identify quantitative and qualitative data research methods, and learn to interpret and analyse this data across different levels of your study with our units in an Introduction to Research and Social Enquiry, Research Methods 1: Collecting Data and Research Methods 2: Exploring Data. To prepare you for your career, our unit in Career Planning for Social Scientists will support your career development journey by allowing you to identify your transferable skills and articulate them in a confident, meaningful and positive manner.

How will you be assessed?


The academic skills unit in level 4 develops both students' study skills and Academic English skills required to succeed. The feedback given to students as part of the assessment process will enable self-assessment and development of learning and skills and promote progress to overcome any learning problems identified. Tutors will also refer students onto appropriate services in the event of issues that lie outside the boundaries of the tutor.

Careers


The degree prepares you for a range of roles in the wider health and social care sectors including the not-for-profit (voluntary) private sector and public sectors. Typical graduate destinations for Health and Social Care students include direct work with service users in areas such as:
