Welcome to Health Sciences

The Department of Health Sciences is a vibrant and growing multidisciplinary department offering a full and varied programme of undergraduate degrees in the Health Sciences, Biosciences (including Nutrition), Sport and Exercise Physiology and Social Sciences (including Sociology).  Additionally, we offer two taught postgraduate degrees: MSc in Health, Exercise and Nutrition, and MSc. Research Methods in Social Sciences.

This taught provision is a reflection of the research expertise and scholarly activity of the team. The department is research active, especially in Health & Well-being and Sport & Exercise Physiology, where we have a number of doctoral students. Besides publishing to pursue the frontiers of knowledge, our expertise, research, and scholarly activity penetrates the whole curriculum, in line with Liverpool Hope’s standard of being a “teaching-led, research informed” University.

We attach great importance to student support and well-being across all levels on contact with the Department, working to enable students to become independent learners, and reach their potential. Graduates from the Department are well placed to secure good jobs across the broad health sector, the public service sector, the social work sector and beyond.
