Health, Wellbeing and Society University of Bristol

Overview

This Health, Wellbeing and Society programme from University of Bristol enables students to cultivate the skills needed to develop and evaluate interventions and strategies to improve health behaviour.

Your work will make a major impact on the social science underpinnings of avoidable health problems and will build research capacity at the interface of biomedical and social sciences, both within and beyond academia.

Career opportunities

The PhD in Health and Wellbeing offers useful preparation for a number of careers. Our students often go on to employment in areas of government policy and health promotion at local, national and international levels. Others have continued to academic careers, taking up post-doctoral positions and lecturing in UK and international universities.

The programme establishes both a sound research training base and an understanding of practical applications, which prepare our students for different types of employment, including research, policy and intervention.
