Course summary

As a leading provider of midwifery education in the south west, we’ve created a blended learning BSc(Hons) Midwifery course aimed at those who need more flexible ways to study when training to become a midwife. With 80% of the theory for the course delivered online, you can study flexibly. Plus you’ll get plenty of practice in the real world too, and while on placement you’ll work the full range of shift patterns just like a midwife would. With close input from practice partners and maternity service users, our blended learning midwifery degree offers an authentic learning experience and gives you the grounding you need to practise midwifery confidently, compassionately and to the highest standard. On our degree, you’ll consolidate your understanding of the midwife's role and learn about best practice. Plus you’ll develop the critical thinking and leadership skills to evaluate evidence to move midwifery forward. You’ll learn from experienced, enthusiastic academics and from subject experts, all of whom have practised as midwives themselves.
