Online study

loubian

Hi all,

I know this may seem like a ridiculous question, but is there any sort of health science/medical related subject that i could study online, or part time? I really want to work in a hospital/help people but i'm working full time in an office with a baby on the way, so can't up and quit and start going to college. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks.

There are loads of jobs that help people, in and outside of hospitals. Do you have any idea what field you'd want to work in? What kind of qualifications do you have?

I would love to work in medicine, or radiography. I know i'd have to study full time for both of those. I'm interested in psychology too, but i'm attending counselling at the moment, and want to be almost finished with that before i start stuyding psychology.

Open University do a degree in psychology. They also do a degree in health and social care

Dublin City University run an online BA in Humanities through www.oscail.ie where you have the option of doing 50% of the degree through psychology modules. Thing is, you would have to do modules in some of the other subjects they offer (History, Literature, Philosophy, Sociology) to complete the degree.

Alternatively, Oscail may allow you to study for individual psychology modules but you wouldn't receive a qualification by going this route - Just that you had completed such and such a psychology module
