The Doctor of Health Sciences (DHSc) curriculum presents an opportunity for you to explore a health domain that ignites your passion. This exploration may include assessing health innovations and initiatives aimed at alleviating health outcome disparities, generating evidence to support enhanced practices and service delivery, or researching the health requirements of various populations. Designed to elevate your expertise, the DHSc program focuses on evidence-based research and its practical application in your health practice, whether in clinical or non-clinical settings.
Moreover, the program prioritizes the cultivation of collaborative skills, facilitating stronger engagement with affected communities, organizations, iwi, and governmental bodies. The University of Canterbury’s affiliation with Te Papa Hauora | Health Precinct uniquely positions it to promote innovation and collaboration among students, researchers, and clinicians.
