Project may be research developing project or analysing secondary data , systematic review, quality improvement project, or clinical placement with a critical reflective thesis on a topic identified during the clinical placement.
Depending on the project to be taken in the 3 rd semester, students will be directed as to which modules will be best for those projects. For example, a student wishing to perform a quality improvement project will be encouraged to take the Quality improvement for health in low resource settings. Epidemiology and Control of Tropical Pathogens. Note: As Advanced clinical management in HIV endemic settings is the mandatory module for this programme, then only in exceptional circumstances would an alternative module be an option.
Note: Other modules may be available and should be discussed with the programme director. Open to healthcare professional graduates with experience of professional work in clinical setting preferably in LMICs. All programmes of study will permit entry with credit attributed to previous certificated study up to a total of one third of the credits required to be awarded an MSc Degree, Postgraduate Diploma, Postgraduate Certificate or Postgraduate Award.
Non-graduates with considerable satisfactory work experience and evidence of appropriate in-service training will also be considered. Experience of working in a developing country is desirable. The programme is taught in English.
Tests should be within their validity period of 2 years. Applicants who have recently completed a degree level qualification taught in a majority English speaking country as defined by UK Visas and Immigration UKVI may also be accepted at the discretion of the Director of Studies. This MSc provides a wide range of skills for health care workers working in leadership roles in health care in low- and middle- income settings.
The skills learnt can empower those who wish to plan leadership and or academic careers in resource-poor settings. It is an excellent qualification for those who wish to work in any area of clinical infection including research, as well as with international organisations specialising in health assistance-related activities.
Many students have had research projects published in peer reviewed journals, enhancing their standing in the academic arena. This new course will provide the methodology for quality improvement projects and aims to have similar successful publications.
Future leaders in the area of tropical and infectious diseases are crucial, particularly in context of emerging infections: leading in clinical management, research and infection control, and students from this course will be equipped to develop lifelong learning.
