About this course
Nursing is a hugely rewarding career where you have a real chance to make a difference to people's lives. As part of your training, you can expect to learn new skills and procedures that help patients.
You will be taught both on campus and in a variety of practice and simulation settings. You will apply your knowledge gained during your study in the University during placements, which are a key part of your course and will constitute 50% of your university studies, working alongside experienced professionals, learning from practice with the support of your practice supervisor (who will be a registered health professional).
The course will offer the opportunity for wide interprofessional learning; the University’s portfolio including provision in social work, social care, childhood studies, psychology, counselling, nutrition, physiology, physiotherapy, sports therapy, biomechanics and public health. You will learn how to observe patients and assess their needs, to plan and deliver the most appropriate care for them, and evaluate the results. We will support you in becoming a caring and compassionate professional who delivers skilled, evidence-based care in partnership with patients, families, and communities. In collaboration with health and care providers, this course supports the growth of nursing in the region.
Our Nursing degree is recognised by the Nursing & Midwifery Council’s (NMC) standards, enabling you to be eligible to seek admission to part 1 (Adult) of the NMC register on successful completion of this three-year programme. Our teaching will meet the NMC code which is: prioritise people, practise effectively, preserve safety, promote professionalism and trust.
Modules
Throughout the three years of the course you will learn and develop as a professional nurse and study areas such as caring sciences, person centred care, professional issues, health and wellbeing, mental and physical health conditions and preparation for practice learning. You will study a selection of core modules each year. Each module is worth a number of credits and you will study 360 credits throughout your degree.
