The Masters in Health and Social Care Policy at Kings College London is for anyone interested in health and social care policy in a local, national, or global context. This is a unique degree programme, in that it involves a partnership between the School for Government and the Faculty of Nursing, Midwifery and Palliative Care, so blends cutting edge insights into the policymaking process with practical, real world experience of clinical settings. The masters draws on case studies from around the world to provide rigorous education in how to think about healthcare, social care, and public health in a joined up, integrated way. The programme is taught in parallel with a closed programme we teach for Officials in the UK Department for Health and Social Care, so studying on this course, you will be encouraged to bring your own experiences to bear, as well as learn from those of your cohort.
