In the master’s degree programme Emergency Care Systems Development and Leadership, you will learn to develop and lead future emergency care systems by developing skills and understanding to:  

  • analyse and evaluate the effectiveness of emergency care interventions and systems.  
  • understand and apply systems thinking in different emergency care contexts.  
  • implement and manage patient safety, teamwork, and occupational wellbeing in complex emergency care settings.

This programme aims to support the redesign of contemporary emergency care on a systems level.
