Educational goals within the program are to develop a deeper understanding and knowledge of the adult person's health in different kinds of life situations and health and social care contexts.
Professional goals are focused on strategies and evidence based practice for promoting health and welfare at both an individual and societal level. These goals are supported by proactive research and development cooperation with companies, authorities and organisations.
