Course summary

The course is accredited by the Consortium for the Accreditation of Sonographic Education (CASE).

This course provides an opportunity for health care practitioners to achieve a recognised qualification in areas such as obstetrics, gynaecological, vascular, general medical ultrasound, and musculosketetal, supported by a combination of structured clinical experience and academic study.

The course is designed to produce clinically competent advanced practitioners, who will be able to meet the needs of the service in a changing health care environment.

The course was planned in full consultation with a wide range of relevant professionals from the South West region, who are experts in the field of diagnostic ultrasound or associated clinical specialisms. These experts are instrumental in the delivery of the course, along with experienced educationalists from within the University.

All students apply for the MSc Medical Ultrasound and can either complete a PgCert in one year, a PgDip in two years or the MSc in just over three years.

    Software Engineering for Business
    I was born and raised in Nigeria and joined UWE early 2023. I will admit I waited till the last minute to decide to pursue software engineering as a degree, but I do believe I made the right decision. My passion for coding and software development is growing by the day and I cannot wait to apply my abilities in the real world. That’s not to say I don’t suffer from imposter syndrome occasionally, but I do think being in the right environment has really helped change my mindset and attitude.
