MSc Nursing Adult

Sheffield Hallam University

Course overview

The BSc Nursing Adult at Sheffield Hallam University is designed to help students develop critical and ethical approaches to practice, preparing them to become lifelong, competent adult nurses. The experiences they are provided with are compulsory to achieve the practice-based learning outcomes of the course.

The course will help them build their skills through different practice-based learning environments – reflecting the range of ways services are currently delivered. This might include simulated learning and virtual placements, alongside real-world experience of services delivered face-to-face to service users.

In some modules, students will learn and collaborate with students from other health and social care courses. This approach will help them to deliver person-centred care – with an understanding of how other professionals contribute to the person's journey through health and social care services.
