Here's what University of Liverpool says about its Nursing course.
The overall aim of this programme is to equip you with all the knowledge, skills and attributes you will need to meet the challenges of being a nurse in the changing context of healthcare and to succeed in the modern National Health Service. This degree provides students with lifelong learning and working opportunities as well as a strong focus on nursing leadership. You will gain valuable theoretical knowledge alongside practical experience. The cohorts are small and this helps to ensure that our students receive the support they require to help them to get the best out of the programme. Throughout the three years, you will gain extensive clinical experience in a variety of different settings, including hospital wards, clinics, community settings, critical care and palliative care. There is a global placement incorporated into Year Two to identify the public health needs of communities both in local and global settings.
This programme is recognised by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) for the purpose of registration as a qualified nurse (adult).

First and second year I felt was inadequate when it comes to this. However third year things appear clearer and I see support everywhere from my course, lecturers, library and guild. The support provided can flourish when no other factors are in the way such as Covid and strikes

Amazing so many opportunities but I am only really aware of them now in my final year. I wish things were ran better during my first and second year as I felt I missed out. The library is very helpful and we have a student guild which provides food drink and social space

Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
