Develop the skills for a wide range of health careers. Study an individual pathway in the Bachelor of Health Science and tailor the degree to your interests and career goals.

Many careers in today’s health sector require skills from both health and other disciplines. These roles which don’t always involve direct contact with patients – include health education, management, information and planning, and health advocacy.

By studying an individual pathway in the Bachelor of Health Science you'll be well-prepared for this wide range of health careers.

This specialisation is aimed at higher education teachers who want to enhance their professional learning and practice. Courses in the Postgraduate Diploma in Education in Higher Education also consider broader topics that impact higher education, including global factors, and leadership and collegial practice.

Oral health is vital for our general health. By successfully completing this oral health degree you can practise as an oral health therapist.

The Master of Health Practice in Mental Health and Addictions is ideal for health professionals who want to extend their practical knowledge and are ready for the next step in their career. It's designed for health professionals with at least three years of clinical experience.

Health management is becoming increasingly important. There are more and more Primary Health Organisations (PHOs) offering one-stop-shop services. But these complex health service providers need skilled people looking after the administration and management side.

One patient can have multiple healthcare requirements, and as a health management graduate you ensure all their needs are met. You work with patients and their family/whanau in planning, decision-making and management roles.

Develop expertise in sport management, marketing, facilities and events management, sponsorship, sport development, high performance sport leadership, law and finance.

Management skills are needed across the sport and recreation industries. The sports field isn’t like a traditional business and neither are the management skills needed to succeed in this area. With the large number of professional athletes, sports organisations, facilities and events in New Zealand, people with specialist business and management skills are in high demand.

Study the Case Management major in the Bachelor of Health Science degree and gain the skills for non-clinical case management roles, working with clinicians, clients and families to develop and oversee a plan of care.

Ageing populations and more people living with long-term conditions mean there’s a need for a co-ordinated approach to healthcare. Currently there aren’t enough health professionals with the skills to support such an approach. The Case Management major addresses this need.

Nurses are critical to the success of the healthcare system, and AUT-trained nurses are recognised as some of the best in New Zealand. Study the Bachelor of Health Science (Nursing) to start your nursing career.
