CC59 - Bachelor of Public Health (Specialisation)

Overview

Compulsory Residential School

Some units in this course require you to attend a compulsory Residential School or Work Integrated Learning. Please see Course Features in the Getting Started tab for further information.

Course Overview

Public health refers to a collection of disciplines that share a common aim - to prevent disease, promote health and improve wellbeing among the population as a whole rather than focusing on individuals. Some of the most important advances in health internationally over the last century have been public health interventions - including the eradication of smallpox, improvements in workplace safety, reduced morbidity from cholera and decreased trends in tobacco smoking. Students of the Bachelor of Public Health will develop an understanding of evidence-based strategies to address existing, evolving and re-emerging health risks and achieve higher standards of health and wellbeing. A strong emphasis on participation, prevention and partnership with the community is threaded throughout the curriculum. Each of these concepts is explored and developed within the core public health units, resulting in graduates who internalise and integrate the notions of theory, research and practice as the basis of their work. You will also be able to confidently articulate your own vision of a socio-ecological model of public health, develop and maintain community and industry partnerships in promoting public health and participate in the political process to advocate for health, social justice and equity through contributions to public policy and decision-making. You will choose to major in health promotion, environmental health or public health nutrition.

Students majoring in health promotion will learn to initiate, manage and evaluate a health promotion project by applying relevant theoretical knowledge and strategies. Graduates will have the capacity to practise as an entry-level health promotion practitioner in accordance with Australian and international health promotion competencies.

Students majoring in environmental health will learn to assess, monitor and evaluate environmental health issues and facilitate conflict resolution between agencies, regulated parties and the community through the application of law, provision of information and problem solving. Graduates will be recognised to practise as an entry-level environmental health practitioner in accordance with the enHealth Skills and Knowledge Matrix.

Students majoring in public health nutrition will learn to develop, implement, coordinate and evaluate a range of food and nutrition interventions through working with local, state, national and international government, non-government and community-based organisations. Graduates will have the capacity to practise as entry-level public health nutritionists.

All students will gain crucial lifelong learning and transferable generic skills, such as critical thinking, teamwork and problem solving, applicable to a range of employment opportunities and life situations. The Bachelor of Public Health will also enable you to gain entry into a variety of postgraduate and vocationally oriented courses offered by CQUniversity or other institutions. You can tailor your own course to enhance your employability or satisfy a personal interest by taking a minor unit of study in health promotion (for environmental health majors), environmental health (for health promotion majors), occupational health and safety, nutrition (for health promotion majors), environmental science, built environment, exercise science or management and human resources. Alternatively, you can elect to take up to four units selected from any the University has to offer, provided any pre-requisites are met.

Career Information

A number of changes within health promotion and environmental health positions have occurred recently meaning that, future graduates will need to diversify into new roles rather than relying on traditional appointments.

Graduates of the Bachelor of Public Health (Environmental Health) will be qualified to work as Environmental Health Officers in Local, State and Federal Government, in public health roles in the armed forces, international aid organisations, other non-profit organisations and in the food industry. Graduates who have selected an appropriate minor may also find employment in government environmental protection appointments as well as environmental management or occupational health and safety roles in private industry.

Graduates of the Bachelor of Public Health (Health Promotion) will be qualified to work as Health Promotion Officers in Local, State and Federal Government, and may also find employment in a range of non-government organisations, such as the Cancer Council and Heart Foundation or other areas relevant to their chosen minor.
