Why choose this course?

We will provide educational opportunities which are student focused, and most importantly, driven by the needs of the mother, her infant, wider family and community.

The role of the midwife as a catalyst for improving the health of families is well-recognised.

Throughout the course there is a strong focus on perinatal mental health, public health and continuity of care. The programme reflects a student-centred approach to education with emphasis on active learning, developing your leadership competencies, research-awareness, professional reflection and critical thinking in preparation for you to assume autonomous practice within the maternity services.
