Health and care professionals

We're proud of our reputation for health, care and life sciences that produces talented graduates ready to practice in the sector, and our high-quality research that contributes to improved health outcomes locally and globally.

Our collaborative partnerships with institutions in the region and initiatives in the University provide the opportunity to contribute to projects large and small that aim to understand and improve the health of our diverse population.

We’d be happy to discuss how we can work together to make a difference.

Health centres

The University of Bradford has strong links with health organisations in the region, with projects based across three collaborative hubs which foster quality research outcomes.

We are also a partner in the City of Research initiative, a collaboration between health research organisations in the district.
