Overview

Midwifery is a rewarding, dynamic and highly skilled profession. This course will equip you with the knowledge, skills and attributes to provide woman-focused and family centered, safe and effective care. It will also enable you to work alongside interdisciplinary teams within maternity services as a Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) registered midwife. Students will commence this programme in September 2027. As a Queen's University student you will be appointed a personal tutor whose role is to support you in your educational journey. Our personal tutor programme is very well regarded, and we were awarded the Best Student Experience award in the 2021 Student Nursing Times Awards. As well as learning in class, you will have the opportunity to learn in our state-of-the-art clinical skills and simulation suite (the KN Cheung SK Chin InterSim Centre). This helps prepare you and compliment your learning in the practice-based learning environments, which take place in a range of clinical settings including hospital and community and accounts for 50% of your education. The course is taught by midwifery experts in education and research, clinicians and specialist practitioners who will support you in becoming a caring, compassionate and competent midwife who provides high quality care. The inclusion of interdisciplinary learning throughout the three-year course will enrich your experience and prepare you for working together in practice. For those applicants applying from NI/ROI who meet the relevant criteria the programme is funded by the Department of Health to include full tuition fees and bursary. These students are referred to as commissioned students. Students on this programme are ineligible to apply for funding from the Student Loans Company. It is not available as a part time programme.
