It is well known that healthcare organisations in the UK and beyond face unprecedented demands, and there is a real need to invest in public health, mental health and wellbeing. At the heart of this unique programme is the ambition to equip students with the advanced knowledge and skills to guide and support individuals, communities and nations to live happier and healthier lives. - This exciting and forward-thinking programme encourages students to consider contemporary and ‘wicked’ public health, mental health and wellbeing challenges, as well as emerging threats. - It facilitates a creative and problem-solving approach to the field in order to improve, enhance and sometimes re-imagine ways of working. - The programme is flexible, ambitious and supportive, and will provide students with the opportunity to further their knowledge and understanding, develop and enhance their practice, as well as ask questions and work collaboratively. Key course features: - Encourages creativity, reflection, questioning and problem solving - Development and enhancement of practice through Work-Based Learning - Authentic assessment briefs that simulate ‘real life’ activities - Flexible study options, whereby students can choose to learn in the classroom, online, or a combination of the two - Taught by experts in health, mental health and wellbeing Students can self-select one of three modes of engagement with the module learning activities. This Masters programme follows a flexible Active Learning Framework (ALF) whereby students can make their own decisions about how and when to engage with the learning activities. See our Teaching and Assessment information for more details.
Getting in
As the university states it
You will be expected to already hold an undergraduate degree in a related subject (normally a 2:1 or above, although 2:2 may also be accepted dependent on interview). A non-graduate may be accepted as a candidate provided they have held, for a minimum of two years, a responsible position which is relevant to the programme within the previous five years. All applicants must be able to demonstrate enthusiasm and the ability to study at masters level, which will be assessed through an interview in person or online. They may also be asked to undertake the university’s Level 6 module that prepares students for masters level study. DBS clearance undertaken by Wrexham University is not a requirement for acceptance or progression onto the programme. However, as part of the programme students are required to undertake a work-based learning (WBL) for one of the modules and, depending upon the nature of the WBL, may be required to receive DBS clearance undertaken by Wrexham University or through their chosen WBL provider. Any convictions revealed by a DBS check could mean particular WBL opportunities are closed to students.
