develop into expert or advanced practitioners, advisers, managers or
educators within their particular area of expertise. There is emphasis
upon the application of knowledge to practice, thus enhancing the
leadership capacity of graduands. The programme is based on
interprofessional learning which helps students to acquire the broad
