BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing

Course Overview

The BSc Adult Nursing prepares graduates to begin the study of nursing as a discipline and, following completion to the threshold standard of an ordinary degree, to meet the requirements for registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). An NMC-accredited BSc Honours pathway provides a competitive, optional additional year to progress to Honours degree qualification.

This degree enables nurses to meet the requirements of a modern healthcare system, work in multi-professional teams and demonstrate leadership and management abilities.
