Course content
Good leaders make good decisions. Good decisions improve health care environments and drive them forward to serve society more fully. Study with us on our Management in Health and Social Care MSc to uncover dynamic approaches to health and social care management and gain the expertise you need to thrive as a leader.
As you study this programme, you’ll develop critical thinking in leadership, looking at how you can influence the various problems we face in health and social care. From interventions that promote working from home, to advocating for CPD training for healthcare professionals, you’ll explore innovative new ways to tackle the problems we face today.
This course will equip you to become a leader in both small teams and larger operational organisations. You’ll understand your role as mentor and you’ll develop skills in strategic management.
From writing business plans, to managing human resources, this interdisciplinary programme of study will give you the skills you need to succeed in a wide range of health and social care management roles.
