Study
Our Health Sciences students learn the necessary technical knowledge, clinical skills and patient care values to progress into successful careers in Nursing and Allied Health Professions. Academic staff are experienced, registered, practitioners who are continually developing their own professional knowledge and skills, based on the latest research and practice.
Our curricula are developed in conjunction with the professional statutory and regulatory bodies, clinical practice partners, and key stakeholders. This not only guarantees that our teaching is relevant to today's workplace, but also provides exciting opportunities for our students to gain clinical experience in a region with a significantly diverse patient population.
Psychology students benefit from a long tradition of world-leading excellence in research and research-connected undergraduate and postgraduate teaching. They receive practical, hands on teaching and tackle real-world issues in a curriculum that is British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited. They have the opportunity to work alongside inspiring academics who are internationally-renowned researchers and experts in their field.
