BSc (Hons) Midwifery Practice

Midwifery is a rewarding and fast-paced career that puts you at the heart of one of life’s most important journeys. As a midwife, you'll support women and birthing people through pregnancy, labour, and early parenthood – making sure both newborns and families get the best start in life. The BSc (Hons) Midwifery Practice course takes a person-centred approach to care, combining biological, psychological, and social perspectives. You’ll learn how to provide evidence-based care, address health inequalities, and support mental health, which are areas in modern midwifery. You’ll be taught by experienced practitioners and take part in placements with NHS Trusts across antenatal and postnatal wards, delivery suites, community settings, and more. On campus, you’ll train in state-of-the-art facilities like our mock hospital wards and the interactive Living Lab, and gain insights directly from patients and carers through our Patient, Carer and Public Involvement (PCPI) programme.
