This is a full time course delivered over 3 calendar years and is designed to meet the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and the Nursing and Midwifery Board Ireland standards for nurse education and training (2018). Theoretical modules and practice learning are integrated in an equal balance so that learning occurs 50% of the time in practice while the other 50% occurs in university. Each year of the course must be successfully completed before a student is permitted to progress to the next year. The course will equip the graduate nurse with the knowledge, skills, attitude and values to work in partnership with adults to respond to their holistic healthcare care needs. Throughout the course students will learn to deliver practice person-centred, evidence-based nursing care in a compassionate and respectful way that promotes dignity, health and wellbeing. Students will also develop invaluable transferable skills such as team working, communication and relationship management skills as well as creative thinking and critical analysis. These are skills which are highly valued by future employers. Graduate nurses will have the ability to act with professionalism and integrity and work within agreed professional, ethical and legal frameworks to lead nursing care. Practice learning enables students to develop the knowledge and skills required to provide safe compassionate and effective person centred care. Practice learning experiences occur in a wide range of community and hospital settings across the 24 hour period, seven days per week and provides comprehensive exposure to a multitude of care experiences. Students are supported in their learning experience by clinical practitioners prepared for the role and university staff. Our programme will provide you with a solid foundation for further postgraduate study. Many graduates apply to undertake further study leading to additional NMC recognised qualifications. Many apply for entry to research studies, such as MPhil/PhD.
