This is a multi-disciplinary and multi- professional course. We welcome
and encourage medical students in their 3rd or 4th year to join our
intercalated MSc Palliative Care programme.

This course incorporates leading research and innovative and
evidence-based practice. It is delivered by the Cicely Saunders
Institute in partnership with St Christopher’s Hospice.
Our programme is open to any professional working in palliative care or
with people facing advanced illness. Palliative care is a
multidisciplinary speciality involving doctors, nurses, and allied
health and social care professionals. We believe our students learn best
in a classroom reflecting that range of professions

Our Palliative Care programme will give you the skills to critically
appraise research and evidence on palliative care, conduct high quality
research, improve clinical practice and develop services across the
world. You will have world-class teaching at one of the strongest
centres of palliative care research in the world and the only
purpose-built institute for palliative care.

.Our aim is to develop your competence and confidence in caring for
patients with advanced disease, while supporting people close to them.
Within your practice, you need to be able to critically evaluate the
evidence behind different palliative care treatments. This is why there
is such a strong focus on research and evidence-based practice in our
programmes.
