Dr James Bilzon, Head of Department, discusses the strengths of studying with the Department of Health at the University of Bath. He explains that the majority of programmes offered are aimed at those who want to become practitioners in the Sports, Science and Health industries. Prospective students are expected to have an initial link to their chosen industry to help them gain exposure throughout the course. The department is proud of the fact that it provides vocationally based training and conducts research that leads to helping solve real sports and health problems.
