The Masters of Women’s and Children’s Health is designed to prepare students (midwives, nurses, allied health professionals) to assume roles in leadership, research, and advanced practice in a wide range of health services and facilities. The course encourages students to critically reflect on current healthcare models, and whether they are meeting the needs of the diverse populations in our community. The content aims to develop skills in working with a range of people, systems, and processes within health services and drive system-level change that meets the dynamic needs of communities, clinicians, governments and organisations. The fully online study mode allows students to personalise their learning, with flexible study options. Developed in close consultation with experts and industry stakeholders, core subjects in women’s health provide contemporary and responsive content that is industry aligned, evidence-based and research-informed, ensuring that graduates are well prepared to meet the current and future needs of women’s health.
