📚About the Program

Our MSc in Clinical Physiology is a new full-time programme designed to support you in developing the knowledge, skills, and professional attributes necessary to practice as a Clinical Measurement Physiologist. This programme will appeal to science graduates with a background in physiology and individuals from other healthcare professionals interested in developing professional skills in the diagnostic evaluation of patients in one of four different disciplines: cardiology, neurology, gastrointestinal and respiratory science. A unique element of this programme is the focus on neonatal physiology. We aim to provide an excellent educational experience in both academic and clinical environments and to support our students as they develop the necessary attributes to contribute to the constantly advancing and evolving nature of clinical measurement science. Practice education is an integral component of the programme and our students will have the opportunity to undertake clinical placements in both Years 1 and 2. Show less
