About the course

The MSc Nursing (Adult) course will provide you with the knowledge and skills required to qualify as a registered nurse in adult nursing practice. The demand for nurses with a postgraduate qualification is increasing, with nurses at the heart of our health care provision and society. This course will enable you to pursue a career with purpose, making a daily difference to patients, their families and the health care system.

Through this course, you will learn from expert nursing academics as well as from clinical practitioners, gaining frontline experience through our placement opportunities across Hertfordshire and London and developing the skills and experience needed to manage a variety of health conditions from prevention through acute case to end of life care. Your scientific knowledge and compassionate understanding will be enhanced with the psychology and sociology of health and ill-health, and you will develop the critical thinking skills and professional judgement needed to provide outstanding patient care.

This master’s degree allows you to develop as a future leader in nursing, with opportunities for self-development through a range of initiatives such as research placements and student ambassadorships. The University of Hertfordshire offers a large range of Continuing Professional Development courses once you are qualified, working with many local NHS Trusts to keep developing your knowledge and providing the opportunity to specialise.

Professional Accreditations

Upon successful completion of the programme, students will be eligible to enter the Nursing and Midwifery Council Professional Register as an Adult Nurse and will be legally entitled to practise anywhere in the UK.
