If you are a caring and compassionate individual, our BN (Hons) Nursing (Adult) with Foundation Year degree will help you become a highly skilled and much sought-after graduate nurse, specialising in caring for adults across a variety of settings.
This 4 year integrated degree provides a route to nurse registration for those who do not have the required qualifications to access the BN Nursing directly. It is attractive to mature learners who may have been out of education for some years or for those who are unable to demonstrate the required skills or knowledge to start their study at level 4. It will provide the skills, knowledge and confidence to progress to the Degree in nursing.
A dynamic and interactive professional course that places the needs of patients at its centre. Throughout the course, our team of supportive and accessible lecturers will help you to realise your potential to become a caring, effective and autonomous nurse who is able to deliver and lead adult care within an ever-changing health and social care environment.
The course enables you to develop and display the values required in modern healthcare: working together for patients; respect and dignity; commitment to quality of care; compassion and improving lives. It also addresses contemporary challenges such as the ageing population, increasingly prevalent long-term health conditions and public health.
Drawing on the most up-to-date research and evidence, you are supported to develop not only your nursing skills, but also the graduate attributes required to succeed in the modern workplace.
In your first year, you will be based on campus. As you progress on from your first year, your time will be split equally between learning theory on campus and applying your knowledge during placements alongside experienced professionals. You will study a range of academic core modules and field modules based on theory and practice experiences. As you progress through the course, programme content becomes increasingly complex as your knowledge grows.
On successful completion of this 4?year programme you'll be eligible to register with the NMC, the professional regulatory body for nurses.

They seem to care a lot about societies but the uni is also in massive debt so canu2019t afford to put much money into them. Lots of events held by the SU, I donu2019t go so unsure how much attention they get. The SU shop stocks a fair amount of food and drinks as well as uni clothing but again itu2...

One campus club which isnu2019t too bad but no where else to go for a club. Some bars and pubs in town but are expensive. Most students go to Southampton for clubbing nights.

A very expensive city coming from someone who lives in London when Iu2019m off of uni. Food on campus is expensive, drinks at the campus club are expensive, the town has nothing to do and very few shops tailored towards students (only Primark and maybe TKMaxx, now a new sports direct) so students te...

Never needed support in most aspects but I hadnu2019t heard great things about their mental health support from some people saying they can be quite dismissive so I went to my GP instead. Support from lecturers is easily accessible in the form of tutorials

Lots of different teaching buildings which are in pretty good shape. Two libraries stacked with books and a decent amount of space to sit. A few food places which arenu2019t too bad food wise but do like to bump up the price which, for a university of poor students, is just plain stupid. No sports f...

Hello!
My name is Jo and I am the official representative for the University of Winchester on The Student Room.
I have lived in Winchester for the previous 7 years, and have been working at the University since 2018. I have studied at undergraduate level, and have lots of experience to pass on from my time at university. Living in Winchester has been great so far. It is a beautiful, historic city that has great links to bigger cities such as London and Southampton. I am happy to help you with any questions you have about the University or life in Winchester (including the best sushi spots!).
University of Winchester open days
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.
