Simulation and Immersive Facilities

Learn in our cutting edge £5.8m facilities at our Centre for Health Innovation in Stafford

Improving the quality of a patient’s life is one of the most rewarding parts of a nurse’s day-to-day role.

On our Nursing Practice degrees, you will develop the essential skills needed to deliver safe clinical care and become a caring, compassionate healthcare professional. You can choose to specialise as an Adult, Child or Mental Health Nurse and will spend around half your study time on a wide range of practice learning placements. Our degrees are recognised by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), making you eligible to register as a qualified nurse on graduation.

Based within the School of Health, Education, Policing and Sciences, we place digital innovation and hyper-personalised support at the heart of the student learning experience. At our £5.8m Centre for Health Innovation, facilities include simulation suites which can be transformed into different settings, such as a hospital ward, emergency department, operating theatre or community house.

Adult Nursing Bursary 

The Adult Nursing Bursary is worth £500-a-year and will be given to all students enrolling on our Nursing Practice (Adult) undergraduate course in September 2025. As the money is not a loan, it won’t need to be paid back.

We are introducing the bursary in response to a national shortage of nurses. By offering additional support to students, we hope to attract more people into the nursing profession.
