Overview
Are you passionate about delivering the best and safest care during pregnancy, childbirth and postnatally? On our Midwifery Studies BSc(Hons) degree, you’ll learn how to provide individualised care for the mother and baby throughout pregnancy, labour, childbirth and the early days of parenthood. During this degree, you’ll have the opportunity to build excellent knowledge of the theory of midwifery. Across all areas of teaching, we focus on health, and the safe management of pregnancy, to ensure the best possible outcomes for parents and the newborn. You’ll learn from experienced midwives, via a blend of on-campus theory and clinical skills simulation, as well as gaining real-world experience via a range of placements. You’ll build your communication and interpersonal skills on campus and via clinical placements. These will be taken throughout the course and in a range of settings, including birth centres, midwife-led units, labour suites, antenatal/postnatal wards, and within the community. We've ranked 6th in the UK (Top in Yorkshire) for Midwifery, in the Guardian League Tables 2025. Also, over 90% of students on this course who participated in the 2025 National Student Survey agreed that learning resources on this course was high quality. Regulated by the Nursing and Midwifery Council, the course has UNICEF UK Baby Friendly-accreditation.
