HOW TO APPLY

Overview


Health Innovation

Introduction

Note: This major is currently not open to new enrolments.

Health Innovation allows you to explore issues and experiences for Mori in health and wellbeing, policy, and healthcare systems, and find ways to improve these.

Our current health services in Aotearoa show that Mori face inequalities in access, representation, and in higher rates of disease, and so we need more graduates with the ability to communicate between iwi and the health sector.
