Public Health: How do diseases spread?

In this one-hour session, we will share a short introduction to our Public Health degree programmes to get you started on your career trajectory. Then we will break out into small groups for you to think through some of the key health challenges facing us today - from the pandemic of COVID-19 to the ongoing epidemics of food insecurity, diabetes, obesity, cardio-vascular diseases. We will explore what's really causing these diseases and their spread, why they are public health challenges, and how we can work to overcome them. It will be an exciting session to get inspired and be motivated about your future, in Public Health.

Sport: Teaching with Sport

Students will take part in an interactive session to learn more about teaching with the sport and exercise sciences. The session will focus on students identifying the key skills required in a range of different sports. Students will then work in groups to design activities which could be used to help develop these key sporting skills.
