University Master's Degree in Palliative and Supportive Care

Reasons to study this master's degree
1 - Interdisciplinarity The programme integrates teachers and students from different clinical disciplines such as medicine, nursing and psychology with one common goal: the care and support of patients with advanced diseases and their families.
2 - We adapt to your professional and personal pace The master's degree combines various teaching methodologies (asynchronous classes, readings, activities, participation in forums), which allows the student to take the master's degree and adapt it to their schedules. In addition, synchronous sessions are held with teachers to answer questions and work on cases, all with a tutorial follow-up to support the student during their studies.
3 - Access to our doctoral programme This is an official master's degree recognised in the European territory and accredited for accessing doctoral studies. The teaching team is made up of palliative care experts who are also lead researchers at national and international level. 
4 - Work placements in national and international palliative care teams and at our Comprehensive Centre for Advanced Simulation You will be able to do work practices with national and international palliative care experts near your residence, which will last between 2 and 4 weeks. In addition, UIC Barcelona has a Comprehensive Centre for Advanced Simulation of over 1,000 m2 where the hospital and home setting are combined for learning in a clinically safe environment.
