Practising nurses, midwives and social carers are heading back to education today to undertake further study and training in new specialist postgraduate courses devised by the University of Dundee.
Twenty five health care professionals start today at an induction day in the School of Nursing and Midwifery to hone their skills in all aspects of nursing and social care. The School of Nursing and Midwifery is committed to providing post-graduate study for those already practising in health care anytime during their careers.
Dean of the School of Nursing and Midwifery, Professor Sheila Hunt says: "Education liberates and empowers practitioners, it opens doors and helps them to provide more thoughtful, sensitive and reflective care. Our new MSc programmes take nurses and midwives in Fife and Tayside into new territory."
Since joining the University Of Dundee in 1995, the School of Nursing and Midwifery has continued to develop it reputation as a provider of high quality education and there is a great deal of excitement about what postgraduate education is able to offer both students and their employers.
