At BNU, we’ll help prepare you for your career in midwifery so you can then help parents through one of the most vulnerable times in their lives and meet the growing demand for midwives.

You’ll benefit from our combined learning approach of theory and practice, supportive and experienced course team, and our specialist facilities. Upon completion of the degree, you’ll be eligible to register with the Nursing & Midwifery Council.

At BNU, you will gain the skills and knowledge that will help you to become a competent, confident and compassionate midwife able to provide sensitive, evidence-based and person-centred care.

Throughout this programme you will develop an understanding of pregnancy, labour, birth and the postpartum period on the early weeks of life and the longer-term health and well-being of society.
Throughout the degree, you’ll develop your skills to build effective relationships, working in partnership with women and their families to:

  • provide safe and compassionate maternity care
  • demonstrate sensitive and systematic knowledge
  • show a detailed understanding of the physical, psychological, social, cultural and spiritual factors that may affect the maternity journey. 


Designed in collaboration with practice partners, service users and the University, our degree focuses on:
  • continuum of care
  • Optimise physiological processes, whilst ensuring that students are equipped to recognise when processes run outside of our scope
  • supporting safe physical, psychological, social, cultural, and spiritual situations
  • working to promote positive outcomes and to anticipate and prevent complications.

You will also gain the skills to support all aspects of infant feeding and understand the long-term implications on infant development, and the wider health of society.

On successful completion of this degree, you will also be able to demonstrate a critical understanding of the processes, resources and policies influencing organisational change, within healthcare, utilising developments in digital health technology.

As a qualified midwife, you will also be able to promote, protect and advocate for the public health needs of women, newborns and their families, using evidence-based practice to mitigate against health and social inequalities.
