The Faculty of Health and Social Care is comprised of four schools: the School of Applied Social Studies, the School of Pharmacy & Life Sciences, the School of Nursing & Midwifery and the School of Health Sciences.
The Faculty of Health and Social Care building on our Garthdee Campus is home to the Schools of Applied Social Studies, Nursing & Midwifery and Health Sciences. The School of Pharmacy & Life Sciences is currently based at Schoolhill in our City Centre campus, but plans are underway for them to move to new facilities at Garthdee.
Together our four Schools offer a wide range of contemporary degree/professional qualifying courses and interdisciplinary learning experiences with the guarantee that all of our graduates are fit for purpose when they enter the workplace. During their time at university our students have access to some of the best and most modern learning facilities in the UK.
