MSc Medical Imaging (Ultrasound)
The closing date for applications for the full-time MSc Medical Imaging (Ultrasound) course commencing in January 2022 will be Friday 6 August 2021 (late applications will be considered on their individual merits).
With a UK-wide shortage of sonographers in an increasingly pressured health care system, there has never been a better time to study MSc Medical Imaging: Ultrasound.
Our intensive two year full MSc programme - accredited by the Consortium for the Accreditation of Sonographic Education (CASE) - is the perfect accelerated pathway of study to launch your career as a sonographer, whether or not you have a science or non-clinical health background.
You will learn all of the academic knowledge required to work in this field and, importantly, have plenty of hands-on training in our skills hub, which is equipped with the latest imaging workstations and houses one of the largest MedaPhor ultrasound simulation labs in the world.
The module delivery will be an online ‘blended’ learning approach and most modules will have an element of live virtual tutorial type sessions.
