Our Clinical Research MClinRes, PGDip, and PGCert allow you to study clinical research in the context of your workplace.

Overview

The suite of courses is a collaborative partnership with Newcastle Academic Health Partners. You'll gain knowledge and skills to perform to a high level in all aspects of clinical research. Our courses are for professionals in many different areas of the health service. This includes doctors and NMAHPs.

Our programmes encourage you to plan, conduct, analyse and write up clinical research. You'll do this in the context of your own professional role. You'll learn and develop skills in clinical research in your area of expertise. This is the most valuable way of consolidating the theory you'll learn on the course.

In the final year of your master's, you'll carry out your own research project. It is useful to have a workplace mentor for this. This is someone who can provide professional and specialist advice and guidance. The University will provide an academic supervisor to support your research.

You'll gain a strong theoretical as well as practical knowledge of clinical research. This helps support your current or future professional as well as leadership roles. Our programmes are UK based but globally aware. They reflect international collaborations and their requirements.

Our courses are suitable for any clinical research topic, including:

  • medical
  • surgical
  • mental health
  • allied health care

What you'll learn

Some of the core learning outcomes of our programmes include:

  • appraising good practice principles in all aspects of clinical research
  • recognising academic scholarship in your own work and of others
  • differentiating between different forms of clinical research
  • identify opportunities in your chosen area of clinical research or chosen pathway
