About University of Brigant

Historic UK university (founded 1883) with Edinburgh campus and tuition-free online degrees.

Overview

This MSc is for people who organise continuing professional development and board literacy around population health in UK systems—especially Scottish boards—without pretending the University of Brigant can register them with UKPHR. Edinburgh campus or tuition-free online, one standard. You will design CPD that changes a board’s questions, not a conference that only collects certificates. Non-clinical. Capstones use anonymised board or CPD-programme files. Dual pathway keeps one standard across Edinburgh campus and tuition-free online. The MSc does not confer UKPHR, NMC, or a consultant-in-public-health post, and marketing must keep saying so.

Delivered fully online with live seminars, recorded lectures, and tutor support.
