Dear Student,
This degree is an innovative and pioneering course, which has been developed in response to a need for more highly skilled leaders, policy makers and researchers in healthcare.
Healthcare systems are highly complex environments. This degree will give students the skills they need to understand this complexity and use this knowledge to solve problems and make decisions around healthcare delivery and design.
The programme lasts four years and includes a one year paid work placement, which will give students the confidence, competence and track record of work experience that they need to make a successful start to their career. This will also prepare graduates for a wide range of employment opportunities by emphasising quantitative skills and independent critical thinking and decision making.
In addition, the student showing the highest research potential following successful completion of the degree will receive a fully funded three year PhD studentship in the Faculty of Health Sciences.
There will be an opportunity for prospective students to learn more about this course at our Open Afternoon on 28th November 2012.
Kind regards,
Lizzie
