The Safety and Accident Investigation MSc is available via two entry routes; direct entry on to the MSc or through the Short Course for Credit Student route, where you take modules for credit towards the MSc in the form of short courses – these vary in length, from 1-6 weeks.
As a Short Course for Credit Student, you should start your academic programme (PGCert/PGDip/MSc) with the Fundamentals of Accident Investigation module. This will form the foundation of your knowledge from which you can expand your skills further as you go deeper into the theory and skills required to conduct comprehensive safety investigations.
For module dates and booking information, you can check the short course pages for each module (see how to apply section below).
Postgraduate Certificate (PgCert): It is possible to complete all modules for a PgCert as a Short Course for Credit Student
