MSc Cancer Care and CPD modules

   Programme start: January and September 2024

Designed and delivered by the University of Liverpool and the Clatterbridge Cancer Centre, this programme is aimed at a variety of allied healthcare professionals who wish to develop their practice in the holistic care of individuals who have been diagnosed with cancer.

This programme is designed for you if you

are a registered nurse, health and social care professional, someone who provides care for people with a cancer diagnosis within their care setting or if you wish to develop your own practice in the holistic care of cancer patients.

This is a multi-professional, 3 year part-time programme with both mandatory and optional module choices, with the option of on-line and on campus learning.

You can tailor the programme to your area of oncology interest and expertise which further enables you to develop, progress, drive forward practice improvements, expand the evidence base and ultimately improve the care of the cancer patient.

Modules can be taken as part of the programme or as CPD. Some of our most popular modules include:
