| Description | The MSc Programme in Palliative Care will give you the skills to critically appraise research and evidence on palliative care, conduct high quality research, improve clinical practice and develop services across the world. This course incorporates leading research and innovative and evidence-based practice. It is delivered by the Cicely Saunders Institute in partnership with St Christopher’s Hospice. The programme will also be delivered HyFlex. This means that the course will be delivered both in person and online at the same time. Students will have the option to come to campus and be taught in the classroom or join remotely wherever they are in the world. We ran our first module HyFlex with great success! |
