Welcome from the Head of Department

I would like to extend a very warm welcome to the Department of Health Sciences. Whether you are looking for a career in nursing or midwifery, in public health or in health research, a friendly community of students and staff awaits you.

We are ranked top department in England for Nursing in the 2012 Times Good University Guide. In the most recent assessment of research quality in the UK, we were rated joint first for health services research.

The University of York is situated in its own campus, with all the facilities of student life, close to the beautiful City of York, which was recently voted Europe’s top international tourist destination.
