Despite the academisation process the profession goes through in many western countries for decades, the level of autonomy of the nursing profession is still relatively low; nurses remain broadly under the domination of doctors and hospitals. The opening in 2009 at the University of Lausanne of a master’s degree marked a new stage in the history of the profession in Switzerland. With new resources, the emergence of this nurses’ profile disrupting professional relationships, both with respect to doctors as well as within the profession. After having presented the stakes of going through an academic training based on scientific knowledge, the article shows the attempt of redefinition of the practical and symbolic roles to which it gives rise as well as some of the effects of this diploma and its resources are having on the professional relationships.

In this article, we focus on film making as a part of craft studies and narrative inquiry. Short films were created in a course in the craft teacher master’s degree at the University of Helsinki. The aim of the course was to serve several purposes such as 1) to enable students to become familiar with a new way of deepening conceptual thinking through making, 2) to apply and develop craft skills in working on a selected concept or theme, and 3) to understand the dialogue between conceptual and material artefacts. We explore the opportunities to transmit multisensory experiences via short films. For illustration, we introduce two short films created during the course. Using the deliberative interviewing method, we have broadened the perspective on reflective and analytical level.

They are an integral part of life, yet many people avoid the topics of dying, death and mourning. All the more remarkable, then, that the University of Regensburg has been offering a master's degree program since the 2020/21 winter semester that explicitly addresses these existential areas. The course of study "Perimortal Sciences: dying, death and mourning interdisciplinary" is unique in Germany. It is led by Rupert M. Scheule, Professor of Moral Theology, who also helped develop the concept. He related to Petra Hemmelmann, editor of Communicatio Socialis, who decides for this unusual course of study, their reasons for doing so and what the students learn and discuss there.

The introduction of the College's Membership Examination in 1971 created a dilemma for the university departments which had previously provided postgraduate teaching for a Diploma in Psychological Medicine. For it was clear that the MRCPsych would soon become a mandatory qualification for anyone wishing to pursue a psychiatric career, at least in this country, and that consequently there would no longer be a useful role for these diplomas. The universities concerned therefore had to choose between letting their diplomas die, or converting them into something other than a basic clinical qualification. The University of Edinburgh, like the Institute of Psychiatry and one or two other departments, decided to replace its DPM with a master's degree (M.Phil) in psychiatry which would be primarily an academic and research qualification, complementing rather than rivalling the College Membership.
