Course summary

Overview Balanced between theoretical study and placement-based practice, our BSc Midwifery degree will equip you with all the skills, knowledge and leadership qualities you need to excel as a midwife. You’ll graduate ready to help pregnant people and their families navigate their pregnancies as their lead practitioner in all midwifery care, and able to manage and coordinate more complex care for those with additional needs. In UEA’s cutting edge course, you’ll study the latest research underpinning current midwifery practices, and develop both your critical analysis and ability to evaluate evidence. You’ll learn how to evaluate patients as individuals and make judgments based on their specific situations. You’ll then consolidate your learning by putting it into practice while on placement. Our Midwifery course will also help you to develop in-depth knowledge and clinical skills related to the examination of newborns. And you’ll learn how to support new parents emotionally and physically as they breastfeed and bond with their babies. Disclaimer Course details are subject to change.
