This online course is run with the collaborative partner Diploma MSc. On successful completion, you will become a leader in the field of Expedition and Wilderness Medicine and can go on to study the MSc in Expedition and Wilderness Medicine.
Since our courses are conducted entirely online, they are accessible to both UK and international registered healthcare professionals.
Applicants will typically hold a first degree or equivalent (including international qualifications) in a relevant professional healthcare field, such as a medical or nursing degree.
