The University of Oxford’s Department of Paediatrics graduate programme draws on world-class research and teaching in paediatric infectious diseases and offers a unique opportunity to gain an understanding of the principles that underpin paediatric infection, the ways in which those principles have developed, and to translate this understanding into good clinical and research practice.
The programme is supported by the European Society of Paediatric Infectious Diseases (ESPID) and the Oxford Infection and Immunity in Children Conference (IIC)
The courses included are:
PGCertificate in Paediatric Infectious Diseases – A one-year part-time alternative to the PGDiploma, taught primarily online with several residential components and aimed at general paediatricians and other paediatrics specialists (i.e. ED, PICU, SPIN.)
PGDiploma in Paediatric Infectious Diseases – A two-year, part time course providing an in-depth understanding of both the theoretical and practical aspects of paediatric infection. This will appeal to doctors working in specialist PID centres.
MSc in Paediatric Infectious Diseases – Available to those who have successfully completed the PGDiploma, the MSc is for those who wish to broaden their knowledge about paediatric infection and develop research skills in the sup-specialty.
