Health education

Health & performance programmes

We promote responsible work and performance practices that will enable and empower our students to get the most out of their talent and performance in a healthy and sustainable way. All students are given the opportunity to acquire knowledge, understanding, and skills to take ownership of their personal development, health, and well-being.

It is therefore essential that you develop ownership and become self-reliant around this topic; you are therefore in control when it comes to your personal development. All Codarts bachelor's programmes have included a tailor-made health programme as part of the study programme's; these programmes are developed by the Student Life department, in close cooperation with the education departments and with input from students of course.
