Course Introduction

This programme provides a flexible pathway of study relevant to contemporary medical imaging practice. It is designed to support healthcare professionals to develop the knowledge, understanding and theoretical skills related to medical imaging that are required for a professional who aspires to work at an advanced level of practice.

It encompasses a broad range of academic modules relating to medical imaging, healthcare, research and management.

Education within the clinical environment is not a component of the course and on successful completion students will not be eligible to apply for Health Professions Council (HPC) registration. However, upon successful completion of the MSc, students will have the knowledge and understanding necessary to work at an advanced level of practice within their chosen medical imaging discipline and to apply learning to international health communities to inform health service practice and delivery.
