Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Midwifery (B720)

With a strong emphasis on women-centred care, the course offers an equal balance of theory and practice. Alongside learning knowledge from highly qualified and experienced practitioners, during compelling units such as antenatal & postnatal care of mother & baby, labour & birth, pathophysiology, and medicines management, students also use BU's clinical skills rooms to practice their skills in a safe environment, before transitioning into the workplace. There students will get to spend 50% of their course time on placements with mothers and their newborn babies.

As well as mixing with midwifery students, students will work closely with other trainee healthcare professionals from different areas of the healthcare system – promoting inter-professional learning, plus communication, leadership, and team working skills, all of which will be essential for gaining employment after graduation.
