Course Summary

Our fully online programme equips you to tackle this growing challenge. As a World Allergy Organisation Centre of Excellence based at one of the UK’s leading teaching hospitals, we’ll help you gain in-depth knowledge of allergic diseases and improve management of patients through practical, real-world applications. The multidisciplinary nature of the course makes it suitable for GPs, hospital-based doctors, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists and other healthcare professionals who are involved with managing allergic disease for adult and paediatric patients. Our flexible postgraduate course offers you the option of tailoring your learning to suit your needs. You can choose from studying single modules (with or without assessment),or a PG Certificate, PG Diploma or full MSc Allergy. We have full time and part time study options.
