Why choose this course?
If you're looking to make a positive difference to people's lives, and already have an undergraduate degree and experience in health and social care, this masters course is for you.
You'll gain the specialist knowledge and clinical skills needed to become a registered adult nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) in two years.
Our academic team members come from diverse backgrounds specific to adult nursing including cancer care, dementia care, ICU, A&E, neuro, acute medicine, community (district nursing, health visiting), sexual health and respiratory nursing.
Our simulation suites provide you with unrivalled opportunities to develop your skills in caring for adults through high-fidelity patient simulators and role play with actors. You will have intraprofessional learning with child, mental health and learning disabilities to enhance your skills in caring for clients from these fields. You will also have interprofessional learning opportunities with midwifery and pharmacy students.

The first year is divided into two parts. In part one you will undertake a bridging module introducing you to the foundations of nursing and healthcare. In part two you will look at the context of nursing within a variety of client groups within your specific field of nursing.
In your second year (part three) you will learn about the analysis and application of research and evidence base and the complexities of nursing at an individual and organisational level as well as preparing for your transition to registered nurse.
After you graduate
This course enables you to join as a registered nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
