Adult Nursing MSc
Bangor UniversityBangor, United Kingdom
Course overview
This course is approved by the NMC. An MSc Mental Health Nursing is also available. The MSc Adult Nursing leads to eligibility for registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council and offers graduates a funded route over two-years into nursing whilst simultaneously obtaining a postgraduate qualification.
This post graduate qualification is aimed at graduates who wish to develop and apply their knowledge gained during their undergraduate degree and pursue a career in the front-line delivery of health care services. The aim of this course is to prepare a registered nurse who is able to offer an excellent quality of compassionate care, enhanced leadership, management and holds inter-professional and research skills, in order to influence practice and initiate change. Our exceptional teaching provision is based upon the latest research into practice (which is a key focus of the schools highly ranked research activity) and is grounded in modern clinical practice.
The MSc Adult Nursing will equip graduates particularly well to thrive in rapidly changing environments, considering how behaviour, culture, socioeconomic and other factors, in the care environment and its location, can affect health, illness, health outcomes and public health priorities. MSc students will graduate from the programme with the eligibility to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council as an adult nurse, with the necessary knowledge, skills, competence and values required to meet required Statutory requirements for registration with the NMC. Tuition Fees Covered If you are considered a home UK student for tuition fees who can commit to working in Wales for two years after graduating, you could get your tuition fees covered in full through the NHS Wales Bursary Scheme and claim for a £1,000 bursary contribution towards living costs.
You can also apply for the means tested bursary that is dependent on household income and other funding that has eligibility criteria for child care support, dependents allowance and parental learner allowance. If you would prefer not to work in Wales following your graduation you can apply for the master’s student loan funding for your fees and a reduced maintenance grant. There are a limited number of international spaces available for this course (International self-funded tuition fees: £21,000 per year*). *The Fee shown is correct for the advertised year of entry.
