This master's degree is for those who want to lead and manage healthcare services. The course looks at real-world challenges, such as how to plan and pay for healthcare in a way that improves public health. The programme has three stages: a Postgraduate Certificate, a Postgraduate Diploma, and the full Master's degree, which allows students to pick the level of study that's right for them.
