Take the next step towards a career in extended or advanced practice while enhancing your knowledge, skills and qualifications in core clinical areas as well as leadership and research. This course, which is accredited by the Society and College of Radiographers, is aimed at professionals with a current qualification and registration as a diagnostic radiographer, therapeutic radiographer, or other healthcare professionals, with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) registration or equivalent.

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS COURSE?

Our postgraduate radiography programme aims to equip you with the necessary knowledge, skills and attributes to become a professional expert in your field of practice.

Whichever route and/or specialism choose from our programme, you will develop the skills required to meet the changing demands of the rapidly evolving radiography sector, while keeping the patient at the core of your practice and gain the knowledge base required to implement service improvements with a view to improving patient outcomes.

By engaging with Radiography at a postgraduate level you will become a champion in your area of expertise, recognised as a role model for enhanced and advanced practice and professional development, and inspiring your colleagues to enhance their knowledge and skills.

In addition to gaining a conceptual understanding of the latest advances in radiography and radiotherapy, you will learn to provide modern, effective, and patient-centred clinical care, in line with the highest public and peer expectations of enhanced and advanced practice.

The Musculoskeletal Reporting course and assessment are aligned with the RCR/CoR 'Standards for the education and training of reporting practitioners in musculoskeletal plain radiographs'

Enhancing Employability Skills

Health Care Professionals have never been better placed to extend their scope of practice. Imaging modalities such as MRI and CT are becoming more of a first line investigation in the treatment and management of patient conditions and thus they require Radiographers who are able to lead to service. The decrease in the number of radiologists coupled with the increase in demand for imaging services means there has never been a better time for radiographers to extend in to advanced practice with a qualification that is recognised internationally.

Your experience at BCU will ensure that you can compete in the international radiographic arena as a creative problem solver and an enterprising advanced practitioner. The present workforce is more mobile and global than it has ever been; there are opportunities for diagnostic radiographers and therapeutic radiographers who have qualified in the United Kingdom to work in other countries and thus have a global outlook on clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Students can exit with PGCert & PGDip awards.
