Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: H046

Here's what University of Huddersfield says about its Nursing (Blended Learning) (Mental Health) course.

Mental Health nursing involves working with people, their families, carers, and communities – all of whom may experience the impact of mental illness. This includes people with formal diagnoses, such as psychosis, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, and personality disorders, as well as those who do not accept or recognise these diagnostic labels.

Our Nursing (Blended Learning) Mental Health BSc(Hons) course has been designed to help you become a confident, competent, and compassionate nurse, with our team supporting you to develop the intellectual, personal, and professional skills you need.

If you would like to become a Mental Health nurse and are in the North East, Yorkshire and the Humber, Cheshire and Merseyside, North West, Cumbria or North Lincolnshire, this course is for you. If you are outside these areas, please visit Health Education England for more information.

Why Study Nursing (Blended Learning) Mental Health BSc(Hons) at University of Huddersfield? This blended learning mental health degree allows you to learn using mainly digital technologies, offering a flexible way to study. You’ll benefit from hands-on experience, and you’ll attend campus for a maximum total of 20 days per year of the course. This allows you to develop skills in a safe and controlled environment, attend occupational health sessions, and undertake mandatory training.

You’ll also undertake practice placements across the NHS and healthcare organisations.

You can borrow a clinical skills kit to familiarise yourself with fundamental equipment you may use in practice, and become part of an online community, to showcase your work and interact with peers and tutors. You’ll also learn through independent, self-directed study, developing confidence in your self-discipline and organisational skills.

The University’s new Daphne Steele Building on the site of the National Health Innovation campus allows you to learn from specialist clinical teaching facilities and world-leading research facilities.

Professional Bodies This course is regulated by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).

Why Huddersfield? Huddersfield’s vibrant and friendly campus is a great place from which to study, while the town itself offers lots to see and do, with good transport links in and around the area.
