The language is English. For Norwegian students, the topic of health management is taught in Norwegian.

This common course is developed for all the bachelor’s degree programmes taught at the Faculty of Health Sciences that are covered by the National Curriculum Regulations for Norwegian Health and Welfare Education (RETHOS).

The course deals with public health and health management. In the Public Health Act, public health is defined as “the state and distribution of health in the population”. The course deals with the distribution of health challenges in the population based on risk factors related to health. Education, work and living conditions and international guidelines are elements affecting disease, illness, health and quality of life in the population at individual, group and societal level. Several of the international sustainability goals direct attention to countering public health risk factors.

Health management emphasis a fundamental understanding of how the health service is organised, relevant legislation, strategies and goals for preventive and health promoting work in Norway.  For international students, the focus will be on the Nordic welfare model.
