Overview
Designed specifically for existing and aspiring managers and leaders, our Healthcare Management and Leadership MSc supports students in developing the skills necessary to critically debate the challenges facing healthcare leaders, and the roles that clinicians, managers, and the wider healthcare economy can play in reshaping healthcare services.

By providing a flexible, multidisciplinary approach within a supportive environment, our MSc enables professionals across the sector to learn with and from each other, develop professional networks, and advance their own practice in relation to effectively managing and leading people, processes, and practices within healthcare settings.

There are full-time and part-time routes available to allow for study alongside work, with teaching hours generally concentrated into two-day blocks.
