A BA/BHSc conjoint allows you to complete a BA and BHSc in less time than it would take to complete the two degrees separately. This conjoint draws upon the biological, social, and behavioural aspects of communities. The programme focuses on the determinants of health, health promotion, disease prevention, healthcare systems and health policy. Learn how to apply core principles of health promotion and disease prevention to specific health problems in the community and choose from a wide range of subjects in the humanities, social sciences, cultures and languages. The BA/BHSc is a broad non-clinical programme of study that prepares graduates for a broad range of health-related careers. You could work in areas such as health promotion, health education, community health, counselling and health service planning. We advise that the University of Auckland is not involved in the employment of graduates and can make no guarantee of post-qualification registration or employment in New Zealand or any other country.<br><br>The study of Sociology includes four broad themes. By taking a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Sociology, you can move between these groupings and take the courses that interest you.

Applied sociology and social policy Social policy is concerned with systems of government and community response to perceived social problems, such as health, illness and wellbeing. Power and resistance Society has established frameworks for regulating and influencing human behaviour, but these frameworks are always contested. Some of the most important examples are sexuality, procreation and intimate relationships.
