Strategic efforts
Improved health for all is a guiding principle at Health.
The strategy house shows the strategic initiatives that we at the faculty have decided to focus particularly on in 2025.
At the top are efforts aimed at the university's three core tasks: Research, education and collaboration. Under them, you will find interdisciplinary efforts.
Health aligns with AU's overall strategy and therefore does not have its own strategy; only selected strategic areas of focus.
Additionally, the departments have developed action plans that are specific to them.
- Research support for health sciences
In 2024, we established the Health Research Support unit together with Central Denmark Region. In 2025, we have special focus on ensuring that the unit is fully staffed, fully operational and able to meet the needs of both the region and the departments.
- New landscape for health science education
Healthcare reform and Master's reform will change the landscape of health science education in the coming years. We will therefore work on developing new Master’s degree programmes in 2025.
- Health equity in a global perspective
In 2025, we will increase research collaborations with major, international organisations and NGOs. In particular, we will investigate the possibilities of establishing a platform within Open Innovation in Science.
AU's strategy
Health's strategic efforts are an extension of the overall strategy for Aarhus University.
