Characteristics teaching programme:
A wide variety of healthcare professionals enroll in the MasterEBPiHC each year: nurses, midwives, physical therapists, physicians, dentists, veterinarians, orthoptists, occupational therapists, speech therapists etc. The research experience of our intake is also diverse: from students who have already obtained their PhDs to those who have just completed their applied sciences (HBO) degree. This diversity makes for lively discussions in the lecture hall as well as learning with and from each other. We work with an established team of teachers who jointly shape the curriculum during both years of study.
