Course content

Join our award-winning School of Health Sciences with over 30 years of experience in nursing education, equipping you with the skills and knowledge to launch your nursing career with confidence.

This two-year course is for those who already have an undergraduate degree and some prior healthcare or related experience, and are committed to providing excellence in care. Our students are from a diverse range of backgrounds and this enriches your learning experience on the course.

You'll work with children of all ages (up to 19 years old), with a variety of conditions. Not only will you care for the child, you will also provide a high-level of support for families. Through expert teaching and supportive supervision, you will learn to attend to child patients' medical needs and care for their personal wellbeing. We nurture your creativity, critical judgement and ability to lead as you develop your clinical skills. You'll be prepared for whatever challenges you might face as a practising nurse or healthcare leader.

The programme incorporates shared learning with other disciplines and professions, developing your clinical leadership skills and preparing you for practice.
