Course modules

You’ll master the techniques to find and use literature and data more efficiently to streamline your research process.

Through your coursework, you’ll also strengthen your ability to analyse, present, and interpret such research to assess its ‘real-world’ implications.

As well as core academic competencies, you’ll enhance important transferrable skills, including communication and presenting through peer study groups and problem solving.

We’ll guide you in building the critical awareness and advanced learning capabilities needed to devise innovative approaches to develop your practice.

During this part of the course, you’ll learn how to explore and evaluate nursing knowledge, and critically examine the influence and contribution of nursing in patient outcomes in modern health and social care settings.

You’ll be encouraged to share your personal experiences and insight in order to critically appraise both your individual role and the role of nursing as a practice within your organisation and the wider world.

Equipped with advanced strategies to help you on your lifelong learning and development journey, you’ll become a more self-aware and creative nurse

This module will develop your ability to think critically and strategically about your leadership or management practice.

You will learn how organisational structures respond to political and social change and analyse how leadership and management styles influence organisational change.

We’ll give you the tools to facilitate change and influence policy in whatever healthcare system you work within.

During this module, you will critically examine an area of your work environment and produce a proposal for practice development based upon your findings.

You will combine different practice development strategies with the aim of widening clinical boundaries, enhancing your personal practice and improving patient experience.

You will produce a portfolio on your chosen area of practice development and will identify and critically examine the benefits and challenges of implementation.

Your final project will be a dissertation – an opportunity to use the knowledge and skills you’ve gained on the programme to produce an in-depth piece of work.

This project can reflect your own clinical, professional, or philosophical focus, and can even address a challenge you face in your practice or place of employment.

You’ll decide on a research methodology before you proceed, and we’ll support you with a range of materials and contacts.
