Nursing with Registration (Adult Nursing) BSc (Hons)

The Nursing with Registration (Adult) degree combines theoretical study with invaluable clinical experience in a range of settings; working within the NHS, independent, and voluntary sectors. Adult nurses play a key role in primary and secondary care settings; restoring and promoting health, supporting patients and their families, and responding to the varied healthcare needs of communities. The Nursing and Midwifery Council introduced new national educational standards for nursing in 2018. As such, we intend to commence a new curriculum in September 2020, based on these standards. This is subject to the ratification of the Nursing and Midwifery Council. This page will be updated as the new curriculum is confirmed.
