Health and social care
This area is practical and people-centred. Some courses sit closer to care, others to service management or community work. Regulated professions have extra steps, and an adviser does not set those rules.
These are study areas to explore, not programmes we provide and not confirmation that a university has places.

It may make sense if your experience so far has been alongside people and you want to place it in a course of study.
