Overview

The Midwifery (Hons) BSc programme from UWE Bristol (University of the West of England) has a strong practical focus and you'll spend around half of your time learning on clinical placements, supported by midwifery mentors.

Career opportunities

Midwives are in demand across the UK and graduates enter careers in a wide variety of roles for the NHS and independent sector employers.

We have close links with our NHS partners, who are the main employers of midwifery graduates.

Once qualified, you can choose to progress into specialist areas, such as working with service-users who misuse drugs or alcohol.

You could also become a specialist midwifery practitioner in areas such as infant feeding, management, lecturing or research.

Accreditation

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.
