About Pain Management, MSc - at Cardiff University

The MSc Degree in Pain Management is an inter-professional, e-Learning programme intended for health care professionals who want to specialise in the field of pain management.

This one-year course begins by introducing the health care professional to the multifaceted nature of caring for patients who have pain. The modules are designed to provide you with the ability to understand the biopsychosocial aspects of pain, and to apply that knowledge to evaluate the various approaches to assessing and managing patients with different types of pain. Professional issues, including quality and safety, leadership and law will also be covered within the course. The module assessments are evidence-based reviews that can inform your clinical practice. The dissertation includes an evidence based review but can also be part of a research project or quality improvement project in an area of pain management. All of these combined aspects of the programme have the overall aim of improving patient outcomes and management for individuals living with pain.

Distinctive features

  • Flexible e-learning programme  -  Distance-learning, online format enables flexible learning at the health care professional’s own pace around current commitments. 
  • Relevant to clinical practice  -  Content and assessments are directly related to managing patients with pain in across different areas of health care, through evidence-based practice that is relevant to various clinical areas.
  • Tailor your learning  -  Focus your learning and assessments on your area(s) of clinical practice and/or pain interest.
  • Interprofessional, international study  -  Work, learn and collaborate with students and staff across the world, from a range of healthcare professions and other academic disciplines.
