Work at the forefront of redesigning emergency care systems

Health care crises have made it clear that our emergency care systems and acute care pathways are experiencing a fundamental change in perspective. The need for major systemic change is evident, for both better person-centred care and the well-being of our health care professionals.

To ensure evidence-based, goal-directed development and meaningful change in emergency care systems, our objective is to educate future experts, leaders and researchers with advanced competencies, diverse perspectives, and understanding of systems integrations, safety science, staff well-being, and person-centred emergency care systems at both practical and systems levels.

Graduates can find work in leadership positions

After graduation, you will be able to apply for different leadership positions. Professional titles may include

◆ EMS manager
◆ EMS supervisor
◆ ward manager
◆ project manager
◆ specialist.

Online education enables studies from around the world 

The studies are taught in English and completed online. The coursework includes assignments and lectures (online). The degree contains three main modules: core competences, elective complementary studies, and research methods and master's thesis. Each student is provided with a personal study plan, in which formerly completed master’s level courses and relevant work experience are taken into consideration.

As a student in this programme, you will learn, for example, to analyse and evaluate the effectiveness and quality of emergency care interventions and systems, and to develop systems thinking and person centredness in emergency care settings.
