Social systems and public health
The expertise of the Department of Business Economics, Health and Social Care, together with that of the other SUPSI Departments, provide the ideal framework in which to present the priority research axis: “Social Systems and Public Health”.
On the one hand, these departments propose and work on related issues, converging around socio-healthcare problems and their numerous and complex implications. On the other hand, these same issues are in turn, and inevitably, intersected by dimensions related to other sectors of the development system undertaken – the environment, the economy, technology – or in other words, dimensions focused on and studied by other SUPSI departments.
It would therefore be appropriate to consider the SUPSI research strategy illustrated here and the axes described above as one single aggregate, since they all possess elements of common interest that the “Social Systems and Public Health” axis also plans to study.
The axis focuses particularly on the following research areas:
