Child health is facing rapid and complex change. Rising levels of chronic conditions, mental health difficulties and health inequalities mean that children’s needs are becoming more diverse and more urgent. Advances in genomics, digital health, data science and personalised medicine are transforming how we understand and support child development and wellbeing, requiring professionals who can use these advances effectively. The Child Health Sciences MSci prepares you to work across biological, psychological and social domains, interpret evidence, and contribute to services and policies that support child health. On the course, you will examine the determinants of health, inequalities in child health, and the influence of policy, systems and services on outcomes for babies, children and young people. You will also develop skills in data analysis, research methods, and the use of new technologies, including artificial intelligence and telemedicine. The MSci runs over four years. From Year 2, you will select a specialism in one of three areas:
- Biology, Cell and Gene Therapy
- Psychology and Mental Health
- Public Health and Health Promotion
You will maintain a holistic biopsychosocial perspective throughout your studies.
