Postgraduate Diploma/Master of Science - Nursing - Oncology

This MSc/Postgraduate Diploma in Oncology Nursing is an exciting new nursing programme offered by the School of Nursing and Midwifery at University College Cork.

The oncology pathway of this programme is offered in a blended learning format (part-online and part-attendance at workshops/tutorials) and is designed to meet the needs of nurses working in oncology settings who wish to undergo a specialist oncology course. The philosophy underpinning this oncology course recognises the uniqueness of the individual at each stage of the cancer care trajectory. The physical and psychosocial effect of cancer creates specific needs for patients and families from diagnosis to treatment and through to survivorship.
