About the Program

The Master's program in Health and Nursing Sciences demonstrates the unity of research and teaching to a special degree. Students can develop and implement their own research projects during their studies. They learn in theory and practice (reflectively and evidence-based) how projects in research and healthcare facilities are planned, implemented, and evaluated. In addition to methodological competencies, the program also imparts important didactic competencies and deals with quality management instruments. The program is structured around three thematic pillars: 'Research - Teaching - Health System Design' that build upon each other as the studies progress. The program qualifies graduates for activities in research and teaching, as well as in administrative areas dealing with nursing, therapy, health and health education, healthcare systems, and health policy.
