Bachelor of Arts / Bachelor of Health Sciences Conjoint - Drama

The University of Auckland

A BA/BHSc conjoint allows you to complete a BA and BHSc in less time than it would take to complete the two degrees separately. This conjoint draws upon the biological, social, and behavioural aspects of communities. The programme focuses on the determinants of health, health promotion, disease prevention, healthcare systems and health policy. Learn how to apply core principles of health promotion and disease prevention to specific health problems in the community – and choose from a wide range of subjects in the humanities, social sciences, cultures and languages. The BA/BHSc is a broad non-clinical programme of study that prepares graduates for a broad range of health-related careers. You could work in areas such as health promotion, health education, community health, counselling and health service planning. We advise that the University of Auckland is not involved in the employment of graduates and can make no guarantee of post-qualification registration or employment in New Zealand or any other country.By studying for a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Drama, you will combine the literary study of drama with experience in aspects of performance, both individual and collective. First-year classes vary from public speaking and performance to practical study in Māori, Pacific and modern dance. Advanced Drama courses involve a full-scale, public production, providing invaluable acting training and experience of production management. As you proceed with your study at a postgraduate level, you will have opportunities in areas such as acting, writing or directing or you might choose to focus on the historical or theoretical study of drama.
