Location of University of Dundee

The MSc Advanced Practice (Clinical Governance) has been developed to offer a unique and exciting opportunity to explore the context and development of the quality, patient safety and clinical governance agendas. Due to the broad application of clinical governance, the pathway has been designed to encourage multi-professional study and is suitable for all local, national and international healthcare professionals. The pathway is also appropriate for non-clinical staff working within the health service, particularly clinical governance and risk management/patient safety support staff.

The pathway allows a part-time, flexible approach to postgraduate study and, depending on which modules are selected, it can be completed entirely by e-learning (online distance learning). Due to the dynamic nature of e-learning, study materials are continually updated to respond to new developments in the rapidly evolving clinical governance agenda. E-learning also provides distance learning students with an enhanced experience through increased interaction and support from facilitators and students from a range of geographical and professional backgrounds.


Contents

In order to achieve the named award of MSc Advanced Practice (Clinical Governance) students undertake the following modules:

- One core module (Clinical Governance: Is it making a difference?)

- One Choice module (Either Critical Appraisal Skills for Practitioners or Methods of Enquiry in Health & Social Care).

- Two Option modules (Selected from a list of available modules).

- Dissertation (Topic Relating to Clinical Governance)

The choice of option modules will normally be discussed with the Postgraduate Academic Facilitator.

The development and delivery of the core and recommended optional modules has only been possible through close partnership working with local and national leaders in the field of clinical governance and risk management. Both modules are delivered by e-learning and can also be undertaken on a stand-alone basis.
