MSc Nursing (Adult) Blended Learning – Pre-registration

Overview

This blended learning course welcomes self-motivated applicants with an undergraduate degree and healthcare experience. We offer a 2 year flexible route, resulting in eligibility to register as an Adult Nurse, with the NMC.

The majority of the theory element of the course will be delivered online, using a variety of virtual and blended learning strategies. As such it’s important you have access to your own IT equipment (laptop or desktop and reliable internet connection) and have a good level of IT proficiency. You will be fully supported to engage with the learning platforms, via a 2 week IT support package (mandatory), which you will undertake prior to starting the course.

Whilst there is a lot of freedom to undertake the learning at a time that suits your needs, you will be expected to login online, at a set time each week during theory blocks, to engage with synchronous learning with your cohort. You will also be expected to attend campus, to engage in face to face simulation and mandatory training, which it is not possible for us to deliver online. The face to face theory, simulation and mandatory training and practice placements will equate to a minimum of 24 weeks per year.

Study & career progression

As a successful graduate you will be eligible to register with the NMC, as an adult nurse.

Many of the graduates find work with local NHS Trusts or healthcare organisations.

Alternatively, you could continue your studies, helping you enhance your clinical knowledge and skills in a specialist area. We offers academic progression opportunities:

via our PhD/Professional Doctorate courses

via our CPD offer (stand-alone credit and non-credit bearing modules and courses).

You need: a first degree at grade 2:1 or above (in any subject), GCSE English and Maths (grade 9 - 4 / A* - C) or Level 2 equivalents. If your undergraduate degree is not in a healthcare related subject we would require significant healthcare experience.
