Course summary

Overview

Begin your career in nursing with an MSc in Nursing. This course is specifically for graduates from any field of academic study and caters to those who have not yet decided which route to take (adult or mental health). We have designed this programme so you can change your chosen field at the end of the first semester.

On successful completion of this course, you will be eligible to register with the NMC and practise as a registered nurse within your chosen field.

This practical and dynamic Mental Health or Adult Nursing degree will enable you to become a critically aware, creative, competent nursing practitioner who practices person-centred care within the local and global community.

This course is split equally between practice and theory, enabling you to gain real-world experience as you put theory to practice in the workplace. With modules deigned with service users and providers, you’ll directly work with patients using problem-based learning approaches. This will prepare you to face challenges holistically as patients may have multiple issues that need addressing.

What’s more, you’ll be a part of a clinical supervision group where you will reflect on and develop your practice. Simulated practice will also be undertaken, which will focus on your development of clinical and communication skills, allowing you to self-reflect and improve as the course progresses.

Your future career

Successful completion of the MSc Nursing will make you eligible to apply for registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council as a registered adult or mental health nurse. This will open up a wide range of exciting career opportunities for you including working in specialist clinical practice, management, education, research or using your skills in the armed forces. You could also choose to travel and explore the possibility of practising overseas.

Additionally, on successful completion of the course there are opportunities within the Faculty of Health and Wellbeing to progress onto further postgraduate continuing professional development, including specialist education and PhD studies.
