This comprehensive programme is based at UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health (UCL GOS ICH). As a student, you will benefit from the unique position the institute occupies within UK paediatrics. We bring together strong links to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children with our setting within the powerful teaching and research environment of UCL. The Paediatrics and Child Health: Community Child Health programme will provide you with public-health skills central to community child health practice. You will build an awareness of current and future developments in community child health and gain the skills necessary to critically appraise practice and policy, and undertake independent research if the full MSc is taken.
CareersThis programme provides the skills necessary to become a community health practitioner. On graduation, you will be able to assess the need for child health services and planning of services, and understand the rationale and organisation of preventive child health services and the relationship between social conditions and health.
EmployabilityAs a graduate of this programme, you will have valuable academic and clinical skills in community practice which you will be able to employ in the workplace. Graduates based in the UK can continue in their career pathway in community child health.
Optional qualificationsThis degree is also available as a PG Diploma and a PG Certificate with fees set accordingly.
Medically qualified applicants should have post-qualification experience in paediatrics or child health. Non-medically qualified applicants should normally have a minimum of an upper second-class UK Bachelor's degree or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard, and several years' specialist experience of working in hospitals, community child health or public health services for children and families.
