My place of work has a contract with King's, however, if given the choice I would have chosen to study at King's due to its outstanding reputation which I felt would enhance any future employment opportunities.
The lectures and level of support from the lecturers is second to none. I found the learning resources to be exceptional and was able to access a very wide range of research articles and books. This was further enhanced by the online resources. One of the modules, Evidence Based Decision Making, was the best I have ever done. When I speak to colleagues who are considering doing this module I always tell them that their knowledge of the research process will be boosted greatly if they do.
I also enjoyed networking with other students which has led to me doing some teaching at King's. My advice to anybody who is considering doing this course is, although there is a lot of hard work, you really feel as if you are learning something that will be very useful in your future career.

Advanced Practice (Critical Care) MSc/PG Dip/PG Cert
I am delighted to be able to oversee a raft of exciting master’s programmes within the School of Nursing & Midwifery. I myself came to King’s in the early 1990s as a master’s student. After 20 years in clinical practice, spent mainly in primary care, I was attracted to the MSc programme at King’s because of the College’s reputation for research.
Today the number of programmes has increased to meet the complexity and diversity of healthcare provision, and research has been fully accepted as an essential element of healthcare practice. I am pleased to say that research and the appraisal of evidence remain core to all of our programmes whether concerned with advanced clinical practice and leadership roles or in the field of education for healthcare professionals.
