MSc Advanced Emergency Care (New for 2012 - 2013 entry)
Why choose this masters course?
The MSc in Advanced Emergency Care is a new course which is due to commence in September 2012.
This course will provide students with an opportunity to develop both their clinical and non-clinical skills in emergency medicine. The modules have been developed to support clinicians in delivering up-to-date emergency care of the highest quality. The course will appeal to both senior trainees and career grade doctors in emergency medicine as well as experienced staff from other backgrounds.
To meet the needs of overseas students who may have not previously worked in a UK emergency department the ‘Introduction to UK emergency medicine’ module has been developed. This includes a clinical attachment to an emergency department affiliated to ScHARR.
How is the programme delivered?
The course has been designed to be as flexible as possible. It can be studied full time over a period of one year or part time over a period of up to five years. The majority of the modules will be delivered by distance learning, allowing students to successfully combine their studies with work and family life.
