Undergraduate Nursing
Nursing is hands-on – and so are our courses. Half of your time will be spent at hospitals and community settings to develop your nursing proficiencies. Not only will you care for patients, you’ll learn to support carers and their families too. Because of our well-established links to the NHS and independent sector, we’re able to offer a range of placement locations across Merseyside and Cheshire.
But there’s no room for mistakes in clinical practice. That’s why we’ve invested heavily in our Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre. Here you’ll learn what it is like in the real world of nursing as well as practising on patient simulators. They’re capable of displaying a range of conditions, including sepsis, and represent ages from infant to adult.
Choose from all four specialist nursing fields approved by the Nursing and Midwifery Council – adult, child, learning disabilities, and mental health. Or combine two fields on our dual-field awards. You could study as a nursing associate, bridging the gap between health and care assistants and registered nurses, or combine your Nursing degree with a Social Work qualification. Whatever you choose, you’ll graduate with the knowledge and skills to plan and deliver care in a safe, compassionate and effective way. And you’ll be eligible to register as a qualified nurse or nursing associate as soon as you graduate.
On graduation you’ll be eligible to register as a qualified nurse with the NMC in your chosen field.
Gain access to our network of NHS hospitals, community trusts and healthcare providers in the independent and voluntary sector.
We've been shortlisted for 9 awards in the 2026 Student Nursing Times Awards.
