Overview
The internationally recognised Nursing (Child Branch) (Hons) programme from Swansea University will give you the skills and experience to launch a rewarding career.
Through a mix of academic study and practical clinical experience, you will develop the professional skills to provide high quality, evidence-based nursing care and health protection measures in a range of clinical and community settings, often working as part of a multi-disciplinary team across the health and social care sectors.
Half of our teaching takes place in the university and the other half in healthcare settings.

These include placements in the NHS and independent sector in hospitals and community settings.
