Study Details: MSc full time
Our accelerated MSc in Midwifery gives you the opportunity to qualify as a registered midwife in two years. This course is specifically for people who have already qualified and are currently registered as an Adult Nurse.
Our course is designed to enable you to transition from registered adult nurse to become a future midwife, able to lead and provide skilled, knowledgeable, respectful, and compassionate care for all women, newborn infants and their families through autonomous and evidence-based practice.
We will work with you to build incrementally on the skills and knowledge you gain in practice and University to help you achieve the level of competence and ability needed to make evidence-based, clinical decisions. The content of this 2 year course is guided by the NMC Standards for pre-registration midwifery programmes (2019).
You will study a variety of modules, which will allow you to develop the skills, knowledge and behaviours required to care for women, and newborn infants across the care continuum from pre-pregnancy, through pregnancy, labour and birth, to postpartum, and into the early weeks of a newborn infant’s life.
Your core nursing skills will be further developed and applied in the field of midwifery. There is a strong emphasis on developing your ability to work both as an autonomous practitioner and within the multi-disciplinary team, and to advocate for women and their families. Our midwifery lecturers are all registered midwives and will support and guide you every step of the way.
The Midwifery Department is committed to providing you with excellent, innovative, learning, teaching and assessment experiences. We use technology to enhance your learning, through lectures, seminars, skills, simulation and virtual learning. This course is taught via blended learning, meaning you will experience a variety of teaching methods, which includes online lectures, self-directed learning and a proportion of study days on campus, in addition to practice-based clinical placements.
