Key Course Facts

Course Description

Study to be a midwife, a unique role caring for women during one of the most important times in their lives. Our Midwifery course will develop your practical skills and knowledge required to care for women during pregnancy, labour and after birth. You'll be taught to question and critically evaluate practice and, in doing so, place women and families at the centre of care. The course is equally divided between University and the practice setting. During your practice placements, you'll be supported and assessed by midwives, who will guide your learning and development.

The course provides you with the knowledge and skills to be eligible to apply to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).
