This course is designed for registered nurses to train as midwives. University of Suffolk offers an exciting environment, within which to study Midwifery. The staff that guide students through their studies are well qualified with a wide range of experience in the discipline. There are excellent links between us and the local trusts where students gain clinical experience. The course supports students in developing a range of knowledge, skills, values and competences, which meet the professional requirements of the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).

This course enables successful students to gain registration as a midwife on the Nursing and Midwifery Professional Register.

This qualification provides opportunities for employment as a midwife in community and hospital settings within the NHS and in private or independent practice.

Students are also able to work across the European Union, plus other countries where this qualification is recognised.
