What this course will give you

The programme is intended for professionals specialising in paediatrics and child health. The Paediatrics and Child Health: Advanced Paediatrics programme is particularly suitable for doctors in training who wish to specialise in research and evidence-based practice in paediatrics. UCL GOS ICH pursues an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to enhance understanding, diagnosis, therapy and prevention of childhood diseases. Our research and educational portfolio covers a broad range of paediatric issues, from molecular genetics to population health sciences, and our structure facilitates interdisciplinary work and allows flexibility for the development of new areas of investigation.

Our close relationship with the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children means that much of our research and teaching is carried out on a joint basis. You will benefit from excellent facilities in both laboratory and non-laboratory subjects.

Teaching and learning

The programme is delivered through a combination of lectures, seminars, tutorials and research project supervision. Assessment is through a combination of multiple choice questions and short-answer questions, essays, posters, presentations, reflective portfolios and critical appraisal of the literature.

Most modules are delivered as blocks of study, normally over four or five consecutive days. Face to face/online contact for each of these days is normally from 9-5pm.
