BSc (Hons) Nursing (Adult)
Nursing is a highly-skilled, rewarding, and caring profession where you can make a real difference in people’s lives. In adult nursing, you’ll promote health and provide whole-person care in hospitals and the community. Throughout this pre-registration course, you’ll develop critical, analytical, and reflective skills that allow you to make sound judgments and evidence-based care. Half the course will be spent at the university, where you’ll learn the theoretical foundations of nursing. The other half will be spent in a variety of clinical settings, developing your hands-on skills.
This integration of theory and practice will ensure you become a skilled, competent, compassionate, and committed adult nurse.

During the first year, experiences may also include caring for children, service users with learning disabilities, or those with mental health problems.
- A student-led placement is offered at the end of the second year which gives you the opportunity to gain clinical experience in an area of practice you are interested in.
