About this course

In an increasingly competitive health service, health and social care staff will need to continually seek opportunities to add to their portfolio of qualifications in order to advance their careers. This is especially true for allied health professionals, clinical scientists, nurses and social workers where a postgraduate qualification is increasingly deemed desirable and essential.

The normal minimum requirement is a lower second-class honours degree in a health or social care related subject. However, you can access the programme without a degree through successfully completing a standalone masters module. The focus for the programme is to link theory to practice; you are expected to be working in an environment that allows you to meet the learning outcomes of the course. All applicants for the programme will be offered an academic interview prior to commencement of the course.
