Career opportunities

Nurses have more contact with patients than any other member of a medical team.

As a practising nurse you will be the central source of support for patients recovering from acute and long-term conditions.

In addition, nurses can also work in specialist areas like intensive care, theatre and recovery, cancer care, or care of the elderly.

Nursing is a career that offers many opportunities to work around the globe, as well as here at home.

The BN adult and mental health nursing degree is an excellent example of how we can help you to become a versatile professional through integrated learning.

When you graduate you will be able to register in two fields of practice; making you particularly attractive to healthcare employers.

They will already know all about our commitment to the future of healthcare learning, the research we conduct, and our values-based approach.

That’s partly why in 2013 100% of our nursing graduates went straight into work or further study within six months.

Most were employed with the National Health Service. However, the diverse nature of the profession means that they could also enjoy opportunities with the police, social work, or armed forces as well.
