Summary
The PhD Health and Wellbeing programme is linked to the interdisciplinary South West doctoral pathway of the same name.
The South West Doctoral Training Partnership Health and Wellbeing pathway enables students to cultivate the skills needed to develop and evaluate interventions and strategies to improve health behaviour. Your work will make a major impact on the social science underpinnings of avoidable health problems and will build research capacity at the interface of biomedical and social sciences, both within and beyond academia.
All students will have two supervisors from different disciplinary perspectives on health and wellbeing. Your supervisors will convene joint meetings on a regular basis and will attend the annual one-day workshop for all pathway students.
Students will normally be registered in the school of their first supervisor. This may not be the school that processes your application.
