Are you interested in getting into research or evaluation but do not know where to start? Is research or evaluation part of your job description but you have no formal qualifications? Do you think you are too busy to study? The Graduate Certificate in PHC research may be just what you are looking for.
Designed for busy practitioners, this course can be studied externally and part time over two to four years. The course will equip you to undertake research and evaluation in primary health care settings, covering qualitative and quantitative methodology, ethical and practical issues, critical appraisal and evidence based practice. You will also gain skills in effective proposal and grant writing for research funding as well as research dissemination through publications, conferences, the media and policy makers.
This unique course gives you the option to engage in basic research and evaluation in your workplace, or move to undertake higher level qualifications such as a research masters or PhD. Students have the option of four coursework subjects or conducting a major or minor project.
Payment of all or part of the tuition fees may be deferred through HECS-HELP.
