Society needs people who understand the whole health and social care system. At Edge Hill University, you’ll learn the skills you need to work in a range of settings and develop the empathetic mindset you need to deliver effective care. Your lecturers will share their own perspectives and talk about their research on subjects like domestic abuse and inequalities.

We’ll help you find invaluable placement opportunities in the NHS, local government services and social care. Having developed your confidence in the sector, you’ll be ready to take on a range of roles or move on to further study for clinical and non-clinical careers.

On this page you’ll find course presentations from our Health and Social Care academics, 360 tours of our facilities, videos and features to give you an insight into what it’s like to study Health and Social Care at Edge Hill.
