Postgraduate Diploma in Chinese Herbal Studies

Herb Garden

We regret that we are unable to run this course at this time.

This course is the natural next step for graduates of our Postgraduate Certificate course who wish to continue studying Chinese herbs. It is a stepping stone between the Certificate course and our MSc (which confers full practitioner status). Accreditation of prior learning (APL) will determine the precise details of an applicant's course. First intake September 2009.

Over the last few years the demand for Chinese herbal medicine in the UK has grown considerably. The herbal profession in the UK is about to be regulated which will further reinforce this positive growth and development. Now is an excellent time to study this fascinating subject and take part in the emergence of the newly-regulated profession. We have been offering training in patent herbal remedies and Chinese herbs since 1994. Building on this valuable experience we have now devised a new learning structure (subject to validation) providing students with a comprehensive and flexible study package to suit a variety of circumstances.

The Postgraduate Diploma is the second of a set of three available courses which can be taken individually or in combination, leading to an MSc.

If you'd like to discuss this training please call 0118 950 8880 and arrange to speak to John Hicks, the director of Chinese herbal medicine, or Michael Pringle the herb course assistant or email him This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it direct.

We hope to start the next course in autumn 2009. Dates will be posted soon
