About this course

an excellent standard of teaching provided by staff from the University and practice, in partnership with our NHS Trust partners
lecturers that maintain close links with practice, visiting you regularly and supporting you throughout your practice placement
simulation facilities, enabling you to practise your skills in an authentic and safe environment
personal tutoring and continuous support throughout the programme
a high level of research within the teaching team
our annual one day inter-professional conference, focused on safeguarding.

We've been running nursing programmes for many years and have a high rate of employability. 99 per cent of our BSc (Hons) Nursing (Adult) students are in employment or in further study six months after graduating*. As you'll graduate as a registered nurse, you'll be able to find work in the UK or explore opportunities of working abroad in the future. Many of our students are employed by the Trust that they worked with during their time at the University.

Nursing itself is a broad area and you'll have the chance to go into many careers, such as:
staff nurse working in an acute or rehabilitation centre
practice nurse working in a GP surgery
community nurse, for example district nurse
working in nursing homes
working with private health care providers
prison nursing
the armed forces
nurse researcher.

A typical offer will require a UCAS Tariff score between 112-128 points; or an Access to Nursing qualification (minimum of 30 Level 3 credits at Distinction, 12 at Merit, and 3 at Pass).

You may find it easier if you have prior knowledge of health, so we prefer if you have relevant A Levels - such as Biology, Health and Social Care, Chemistry, Psychology, Physics, Physical Education, and Sociology. However, it is not essential.

In addition, you will require five GCSEs including Maths, English and Science at Grade C/4 or above (or equivalent).

Course programme

This module map provides a list of the modules that make up your course.

Each module is worth a specified number of credits (typically either 15 or 30 credits for undergraduate courses). Compulsory (or ‘core’) modules cover key subject knowledge, while ‘option’ modules enable you to develop your own interests. For a full-time course you must take modules worth a total of 120 credits at each level of the course. The number of option modules you can take depends on the number of compulsory modules at each level. You can find more information about how your course is structured via the Academic Advice pages.

Our teaching is informed by research and employer requirements, and modules change periodically to reflect developments in the subject area. In addition, where we have insufficient numbers of students interested in an option module, this may not be offered. If an option module does not run, we will advise you as soon as possible and help you choose an alternative module.
