The Health Science program at Griffith University is for students who want to work in health. It's a non-degree program that lasts one year and helps students learn about health science.

Students learn about anatomy, physiology, and health promotion. They also get to practice what they learn, which helps them get ready for jobs in health. The program has strong connections to the health industry, so students can meet health professionals and learn from them.

Graduates can work in community health, health promotion, or health administration. They can also use this program as a stepping stone to further studies in health, which can help them get better jobs and advance their careers.
