Course summary

Our programme has been designed to provide the educational background required for clinicians, nurses, paramedics and physician associates, managing medical emergencies in children.Paediatric Emergency Medicine (PEM) is a rapidly expanding specialty. It has its roots in Emergency Medicine and Paediatrics but also has close affiliations with Paediatric Surgical Specialties, Paediatric Critical Care, Primary Care and Public Health.From quite a diverse background, PEM has now developed into a specialty in its own right and there is a great need for extra PEM training on a UK, European and worldwide basis.Prospective students will often be working full-time in professional roles caring for ill and injured children. Our programme is delivered as a part-time, online, interactive MSc which affords students learning in a real-world context a degree of flexibility in their approach to study.
