It will provide knowledge important in performing and understanding research.

Subspecialty

Paediatric science and audit

This course provides you with a rigorous scientific basis for evidence-based practice in a child health specialism outside the UK in order to prepare you to lead and develop services on return to your country of origin.

Paediatric project and research

The research project and in-depth review are a means of getting you to engage in detail with one topic or issue relevant to your specialist medical subject, and then to carry out original research into that topic or issue, and to present an extended written argument. It requires you to draw on your knowledge of key concepts and theories gained from other parts of the programme, together with your in-depth knowledge of research methods and analytical techniques in order to present a coherent Masters-level project.

Where appropriate, the research project may be an evidence-based service and business plan for your subspecialty in your home country.
