Academic/Clinical Programmes

Do you wish to:

• enhance your professional development?
• pursue research into an area of practice in which you have a strong interest?
• add value to your clinical practice?
• add value to your team?
• boost your credibility?

 

If the answer to any of these questions is ‘yes’, then following a clinical/academic programme may be for you. Whatever the area of your professional healthcare practice, following a programme of research leading to a higher degree qualification is a possible option.
