Midwifery

This BSc Midwifery degree prepares students to become capable midwives who respond with confidence to complicated situations. The curriculum develops resilience, analytical thinking, clinical judgement and problem-solving, grounded in current evidence. Early study covers anatomy, physiology and the support available to women and families during pregnancy. Assessment is authentic and built throughout the degree, linking theory with practice through real-life scenarios. Practice placements run alongside taught modules, supported by a professional record of achievement. Applicants must be old enough to begin clinical work, since professional standards govern all placements. Graduates register as midwives and work in hospital maternity units, community services and home birth teams, supporting women and newborns through safe, personalised care. Graduates also gain the confidence to lead women-centred care, reflecting the professional values that guide the whole course.
