SHIFT CARE: Courses
Here is a list of the courses available for application within SHIFT CARE. The mandatory courses for doctoral students enrolled in the research school are Integrated care – from theory to practice (7.5 ECTS credits) and Didactics for Integrated care (5 ECTS credits).
Integrated care - from theory to practice
The course, Integrated care - from theory to practice, forms a theoretical and methodological foundation for understanding and exploring Integrated care through collaboration with municipal healthcare services and other services in social care, primary care and in-patient care. Completing the course will allow the PhD students to explain and critically discuss key features to enable the transition to Integrated care and argue how to apply selected applicable theoretical perspectives. For the assignments, students will apply theories and perspectives to their own PhD-project.
Course coordinator: Professor Andreas Fors.
Next course offering: Spring 2028.
