We intend our work to be transformative in raising student aspirations and enhancing employability through a consistent emphasis on personal, professional and academic development in addition to reflecting current and future trends in the sector. The successful applicants will demonstrate a commitment to, and experience of, working aligned with these values.

Working with locally identified needs, our nursing programme has a local, primary, community and social care nursing focus: seeking to promote the visibility of primary, community and social care careers through our innovative simulated placements and clinical nursing placements within the nursing curriculum. We empower our students to work to the scope of their registration on graduation and showcase a full range of nursing career options throughout their student career with us.

We have invested in an ambitious programme for nursing. Our multi-million-pound Simulation and Skills Suite (Which was formally opened in January 2024), provides opportunities for clinical simulation in a range of health care settings, from home to hospital. Our community-based simulation spaces and immersive learning technology further support our ambitions. Our nursing programme provision is complemented with a range of allied health professional programmes including dietetics, nutrition, physiotherapy and psychology, as well as biomedical sciences offering opportunities for interprofessional learning, teaching and clinical simulation.
