Theory and practice
In professional Bachelor degree programmes, there is a focus on learning how to combine theory and practice. Therefore, all our programmes have periods of placement in different areas in the local health society at each campus.

Internationalisation
The international aspect has high priority. To ensure an excellent international standard, each department has an International Coordinator and the Faculty has a central department where Head of International Affairs work together with professional consultants to integrate internationalisation in the whole organisation of the Faculty. The primary tasks are to:
