Interested in hauora? Committed to the wellbeing of your community? Study the Certificate in Health and Wellbeing at the University of Waikato.
The Certificate in Health and Wellbeing (Level 5) introduces students to foundational concepts in hauora, human biology, health systems, and cultural competency, providing an interdisciplinary base for further study or entry-level employment in the health sector.
Underpinned by a commitment to equity and the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, the programme equips students with essential introductory knowledge in holistic health, biomedical sciences, health promotion and kaupapa Māori psychology.
