Course summary
The Professional Clinical Practice PG Cert/PG Dip/MSc programme is a part-time, post-registration master’s degree that can flexibly meet your professional development needs, whether you are a registered nurse, midwife or allied health professional. This programme is designed for post registration health care practitioners to help to develop high-level decision making and leadership skills in complex clinical situations in order to positively impact patient care. As noted below, one of the key features of this MSc programme is that students are able to ‘step on’ and ‘step off’ the programme at a variety of award stages to take a break before completion of the full MSc over a total of 6 years. Students on this programme can exit at the following award stages. Students can take just one module on the programme (either 15 or 30 credits) as part of their CPD and exit with a single module called an Institutional Credit Award. Students can undertake 60 credits of modules and exit with a PgCert Professional Clinical Practice award. Students can undertake 120 credits of modules (including x2 core modules) and exit with a PG Dip Professional Clinical Practice award. Students can undertake a total of 180 credits (including x2 core modules) for the full MSc Professional Clinical Practice award. Students can study relevant clinical modules and can achieve an exit award relevant to their clinical speciality. If a student is unsure which exit award they wish to aim for they should enrol on the full MSc and discuss their module choice or progression at one of the MSc Professional Clinical Practice student open surgeries, held monthly with Programme Leader Deborah Dowsett ddowsett@dmu.ac.uk. Email Deborah to book your place. Where appropriate, recognition of prior learning (RPL) and experience can be accredited. We offer a number of different clinical and core modules which the students can choose from in order to have the opportunity to explore their clinical speciality in depth. Please note if students are studying more than 60 credits they must undertake two core modules: PCPH 5034 Professionalism and Accountability in Health Care Practice (15c) and SPEC5610 Research Methods for Health Care Professionals (15c).
