The Professional Diploma in Health Economics is a one-year, part-time programme that examines the economics of healthcare provision. There is a palpable need for those interested in healthcare in Ireland to understand the economic rationale behind the allocation of resources in this vital sector. To meet this need, the Diploma explores the fundamentals of economics, the distinctive features of healthcare economics and the different mechanisms for evaluating spending on healthcare.
Expressly designed for those who want to obtain a nationally recognised qualification while remaining in work, the Diploma is delivered through a blended learning model that allows study from anywhere in the country.
