Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences

History

In January 2007, the faculties of Medicine and Health Sciences merged into the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences (FHML). In the past 35 years both faculties developed powerful academic educational profiles, which caused the growth of a relationship between the faculties that differs fundamentally from those usually seen between Dutch faculties of this kind.

Education

The Faculty of Health Medicine and Life Sciences (FHML) wants its graduates to be independently thinking and adaptive professionals who are lifelong learners and have a broad, state-of-the-art view on health and health care. Students are therefore prepared for a future in which they can successfully function in the health-related work field and/or academic arena, in an international society that is continually subject to demographic, technological, social and scientific changes.

Research

Health and disease increasingly demand an integrated approach, ‘integrated care’. Next to disease and defect, health and health risks are central to the research of the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences (FHML). Future health care is not only about patients but also targeted at people who are at risk to develop certain diseases. Hence, the entire continuum from health to disease is taken into account. This integrated approach of health care is characteristic to the research and education of FHML.
