About the Faculty
We have an outstanding reputation for the quality of our programs and graduates. This reputation builds on the leadership established by our predecessor, the Lincoln Institute of Health Sciences. There is a strong demand for our vocationally relevant courses. Our aim is to provide high quality education in health and social work to improve health, wellbeing and the efficient delivery of quality health and human services.
An ageing global population means that qualified professionals in the health and welfare sectors are in greater demand. We look forward to playing a significant role in training students for these increasingly important professions.
