This course will provide you with the perfect blend of theory and practice to ensure that you emerge as a competent and safe practitioner. The BA (Hons) in Midwifery Practice is not just a degree; it will give you entry to a challenging and rewarding professional career. The course at the University of York is accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and on successful completion you will gain entry to the relevant part of the register and be qualified to work as a midwife. The course will equip you to be a safe, clinically competent, reflective practitioner and leader within contemporary midwifery, maternity, and healthcare. We use a diverse range of assessment methods to demonstrate your learning outcomes. These include clinical analysis, exams, case studies, presentations, use of the virtual learning environment (VLE) and vivas. Individual written assessment feedback will be provided to you for every piece of summative assessed work, with the exception of closed examinations. On completion of this course many of our students go into careers with NHS Trusts in the region or pursue both national and international opportunities. Independent midwifery practice is also an option.
