Applications are invited for those wishing to pursue a Full-Time Masters

Health and illness are more than medical matters; illness is a human
experience, in which biological processes are shaped by social, political
and economic conditions, by cultural beliefs and values, and by systems of
language and meaning. The Department of Social Science, Health & Medicine
is unique interdisciplinary social science department working in
collaboration with biomedical researchers and clinicians. We focus on the
social, political, economic, legal and ethical factors shaping developments
in biomedicine, disease and healthcare and their implications. It is also
