Course summary

Be at the forefront of new life as you learn the fundamentals to becoming a dynamic, compassionate and competent midwife.

Course overview

The BSc Midwifery course is designed to prepare you to become a midwife who is competent in universal care during the childbearing continuum, who can recognise when additional care needs are required, and work as part of a multi-disciplinary and interprofessional team. As a student midwife, you will develop the skills to become a resilient, kind, caring, reflective, lifelong learner who can apply a wide range of evidence-based knowledge to underpin your professional practice across the childbearing continuum. The curriculum is designed around an increasing complexity throughout each year of the course, using case-based modules that enable you to develop as a creative practitioner to combine skills of critical thinking, clinical reasoning and problem solving.

Why study this course with us?

Our BSc Midwifery course is aligned to the following six Domains from the Standards of proficiency for midwives (NMC, 2019): 

  1. Being an accountable, autonomous, professional midwife  
  2. Safe and effective midwifery care: promoting and providing continuity of care and carer  
  3. Universal care for all women and newborn infants  
  4. Additional care for women and newborn infants with complications  
  5. Promoting excellence: the midwife as colleague, scholar and leader  
  6. The midwife as skilled practitioner  

Our Programme Team are committed to supporting you to realise your potential to develop skills that make you confident, competent and a responsive, autonomous and accountable practitioner. You will develop and enhance your knowledge, skills and the behaviours that are required to deliver and lead high quality evidence-based midwifery care across a range of healthcare environments.
