Overview

Our MSci Midwifery with Leadership (with Foundation Year) is designed to provide a pathway through to our highly-rated, accredited Midwifery degree - and a rewarding professional career. With a solid foundation in Biology, this course will provide you with the fundamental knowledge of healthcare provision, healthcare professional roles and clinical skills to enable you to be successful on the first year of the Midwifery with Leadership degree and beyond. Three quarters of the Foundation Year is common to a range of future healthcare professions, so it provides an ideal opportunity to learn about other roles and enables you to make informed decisions about your future career options. The course’s multi-professional nature breaks down interprofessional barriers and encourages an ethos of interprofessional collaboration when in practice. Within the module specific to Midwifery, you will be introduced to the profession’s broad scope of practice, professional values and how it contributes to the delivery of high-quality patient-centred care. Following successful completion of the Foundation Year, you will move onto our Midwifery with Leadership degree. We are currently the only university in the UK offering a pre-registration midwifery degree with an integrated leadership component.
