Program Overview
Students on the MSc Dementia studies will benefit from studying in a Medical and Health School that is highly ranked for its research in general and in particular for its research into the experience of living with dementia and supporting people living with dementia. This research is focused in the Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) and throughout the course students will be exposed to practical and theoretical innovations, many of which originated in the DSDC at Bangor.
The programme builds upon existing theoretical perspectives and research evidence underpinning applied health and social care practice in the field of dementia care. It critically examines current theory, practice and policy in order to advance appropriate approaches to dementia care from the disciplines of mental health, health and social care management. The course seeks to develop a framework for students to engage in active person- and family centred care of people with dementia across diverse acute and community settings. It positions assessment, care planning and interventions as strategies that respond to the complexity of dementia as a lived experience, including attention to communication and culture in therapeutic interventions to develop excellence in service delivery.
Students wishing to can exit the programme after achieving sufficient credits for either a PG Certificate or PG Diploma if they don’t wish to undertake the full MSc giving students flexibility in the duration and depth of their course.
The course is available as both a traditional class based pathway utilising blended learning and as a distanced learning pathway with e-learning modules.
