This interdisciplinary programme will provide you with a grounding in the different social science disciplines used to study population health, preparing you for research and professional practice in the health sector and beyond.
In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 15 or 30 credits, adding up to a total of 120 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 30-credit module is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).
As you progress through the programme, you will be provided increased opportunity for specialisation in population health. Compulsory modules in years one and two provide breadth and depth in understanding how global health and disease are measured and analysed, incorporating research methods, demography, infectious disease and life course epidemiology. You will receive applied data analysis training in all years, bringing UCL’s unparalleled data access and understanding of theory together in a hands-on learning environment.
You will choose between two routes:
The Population Health Sciences route which will enable you to become specialised in chosen topics within the population health discipline.
The Population Health Sciences (Data Science) route which has a strong emphasis on quantitative research methods in the social sciences.
Upon successful completion of 360 credits, you will be awarded a BSc (Hons) in Population Health Sciences.
