Student testimonials

Yushang Yang

“Studying for the MA in Health, Culture & Societies at Liverpool has been a highly rewarding experience. I have particularly valued the programme’s breadth, from Researching Health Cultures and Societies and Arts, Mental Health and Wellbeing to Data Visualisation Using R. It has enabled me to examine health from different perspectives while developing practical research skills and pursuing my own research interests.”

"I joined the MA in Health, Cultures and Societies hoping to deepen my understanding of health and healthcare from a broader, more interdisciplinary perspective. As an international student, I found the programme especially enriching, as it introduced us to a wide range of perspectives across diverse and engaging topics, from mental health to environmental influences on health and much more.

"One of the programme's greatest strengths is the freedom it gives students to pursue and research on topics that genuinely interest them. This flexibility allows us to explore issues that are personally meaningful, reflect our identities, and align with our academic and professional aspirations. The programme is inclusive, intellectually stimulating, and well suited to students from a variety of backgrounds and interests."
