Who is the programme for?

This part-time, flexible, work-based Master's qualification is suitable for all those involved in the management of medical education. It offers you the opportunity to attain academic recognition for the skills, knowledge, and experience that you have developed in the workplace whilst focusing on a specific area of practice relevant to your work and career progression.

You explore your profession further and consider the professional challenges associated within your specific area of practice, with modules that have been designed to help you review and analyse the current debates relevant to the professional context in which you are working.

The course is taught online during four extended weekends per year, is 100% coursework assessed and runs over three years, with each being equivalent to a recognised postgraduate qualification: PgCert, PgDip and MSc.

Due to visa restrictions, students who require a student visa to study cannot study part-time, unless undertaking a distance or blended-learning programme with no on-campus provision.
