This programme prepares compassionate practitioners for modern healthcare environments. Campus simulation wards develop clinical skills; placements with NHS and private partners provide real-world experience. You will study anatomy, pharmacology, mental health nursing, and public health. Interprofessional education sessions build collaboration skills with midwifery, physiotherapy, and medical students where available.
BSc (Hons) Nursing & Health Sciences is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 3 years full-time, and the credit total is 360. Students move from Foundations of Nursing Practice through Foundations of Nursing Practice; Human Anatomy & Applied Physiology; Communication, Ethics & Compassionate Care; Clinical Practice Placement I; Microbiology, Infection Control & Immunology; Health Promotion & Population Wellbeing, and finish on Practice Placement III & Honours Portfolio.
Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students describe how people, records, and decisions move through one service, and separate cause from harm. Reading is a pathway description, an incident summary, and an information standard. The artefact a marker expects is a brief a service manager could use, with the evidence attached.
The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Deliver safe, evidence-based nursing interventions Communicate effectively with patients and multidisciplinary teams Apply clinical reasoning in simulated and placement settings
Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass.
This course does not confer a licence to practise nursing, medicine, or any other clinical profession.
The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
Clinical placements are arranged across Lothian health boards with dedicated placement educators.
