This exciting, two-year pre-registration course is underpinned by master’s level education, enabling you to become a highly educated adult nurse with longer term potential for management, leadership, consultancy, educational and research roles.
You’ll gain a critical and detailed knowledge of life and social science theory, utilising a hybrid approach to teaching and learning, which underpins safe and effective person centred practice. You’ll critically explore systematic approaches to the delivery of nursing care in response to health improvement and public health strategies.
You will focus on developing communication and interpersonal skills that will enhance your ability to provide values-based, person-centred, compassionate care, particularly to vulnerable individuals. You will also undertake a piece of substantive research on a topic of contemporary practice specific to adult nursing.
