Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Midwifery
Program Overview
Our employer links, practical focus and the clinical experience offered means that 95% of our graduates are in work or further study six months after graduation.
Why study midwifery?
- Midwives are autonomous practitioners providing care and support to women and their families during pregnancy, birth and the early postnatal period.
- Working as part of a multidisciplinary professional team, midwives practise in birth units, communities and hospitals, supporting women to have a positive experience of childbirth.
- This dynamic, demanding and privileged role carries great responsibility but is incredibly rewarding.
- A £5,000 per year training grant is available for students. Further information is available on the NHS Business Services website.
Why UWE Bristol?
- BSc(Hons) Midwifery is accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), which means you can register as a midwife with them when you graduate.
- With close input from practice partners and maternity service users, the course offers an authentic, woman-centred learning experience and gives you the grounding you need to practise midwifery confidently, compassionately and to the highest standard.
- Cement your understanding of the midwife's role and learn about good midwifery practice. Develop the critical thinking and leadership skills to evaluate evidence, and help move midwifery forward.
- Based at our Glenside campus UWE Bristol's home of health and social care you'll develop strong interpersonal and inter-professional skills to work in a team with women, their families and healthcare professionals from other disciplines.
- Work with enthusiastic academics who've all practised as midwives themselves.
- The course has a strong practical focus and you'll spend around half of your time learning on clinical placements, supported by midwifery mentors.
- Engage with service users, practising midwives, researchers and other healthcare professionals in placements, class and online.
- Practise and hone your skills with medical students in hospital settings, and in our purpose-built Simulation Suite and Birth Room.
Where can it take me?
- Midwives are in demand across the UK. Your skills will be sought after in both hospital and community-based roles.
- You could progress to become a specialist or consultant midwifery practitioner, clinical midwifery manager, lecturer or researcher in midwifery.
