We are committed to creating an environment in which everyone can reach their true potential and in which male and female have equality of opportunities for career development and learning. We actively encourage males to the nursing programme to dispel the view of nursing as a female profession and to increase the number of men in healthcare.

We are dedicated to providing tailored, value adding learning experiences through the integration of technology.

Students deciding to study at this School will embark on a learning experience that carefully blends innovative elearning technologies with traditional face-to-face practices in order to utilise the strengths of both. This results in students experiencing learning that is interactive, engaging, flexible and fun.

Student exchange programmes enrich your ability to critically compare the diverse delivery of health care and practice from a more global perspective.

As globalisation becomes increasingly important, the opportunity to study abroad, and experience another culture is a rewarding and meaningful experience. Students have the opportunity to apply for an international elective placement with the guidance and support from International co-ordinators in midwifery and each field of nursing.

Opportunities to take part and learn from leading research with internationally renowned researchers

We produce internationally excellent research that informs healthcare policy, underpins nursing and midwifery education and practice, and makes real improvements for patients and their families. Our research is remarkably interdisciplinary and focuses on two key healthcare areas: Maternal and Child Health and Chronic Illness and Palliative Care.

Users and carers function as co-educators, both in terms of teaching and guiding the research focus of the school.

This initiative involves effective qualitative and consistent involvement of health service users and carers in the education and clinical development of nursing and midwifery students. The means that our teaching practices more effectively reflect the needs of contemporary healthcare.
