Midwifery With Registration As A Midwife Bsc in Kings College London

Overview

The UK Government has announced that nursing, midwifery and many allied health students will benefit from guaranteed, additional support of at least £5,000 a year. The funding will be available from next year and will not have to be repaid.

From bump to birth, midwives play a critical role caring for women and safely bringing their babies into the world. At King’s College London, our Midwifery BSc prepares you for everything you’ll face in your career.

You’ll learn from leading practitioners, professors, and researchers, developing skills you need to support women through their entire pregnancy journey.

Key benefits

• Study at the No.1 Nursing & Midwifery Faculty in the UK and No.2 in the world (2019 QS World University Rankings).
• Learn from internationally-renowned clinicians and academics – as well as visiting professors and guest speakers.
• 99% of our graduates find successful employment.
• Care for a diverse population of pregnant women during placements at leading NHS trusts like St Mary’s (home of the Lido Wing favoured by the Duchess of Cambridge), and optional electives in East Asia, Africa or Australasia.
• Gain experience in our simulation centre, with full body patient simulators who breathe, respond to drugs, and have measurable blood pressures and pulses.

Description

First, we’ll guide you through what’s normal in pregnancy and birth. Then, as you delve deeper into the course, you’ll learn about the complexities that pregnant women can face. We prepare you for emergencies so you can tackle any challenge.

Working on placement in London, you’ll be exposed to a diverse range of people and situations. Some days will be challenging, but you’ll be part of a community of midwives and professionals who will support you through the ups and downs.

Throughout your second and third year you’ll take on your own caseload. You can discover first-hand what it takes to effectively support a woman from her first months of pregnancy to birth and the postnatal period.

Teaching

No two days are the same at King’s. One day you could be listening to a guest lecturer talk about new ideas in midwifery practice, another you could be on placement supporting a woman to start breastfeeding.

From eLearning and lectures, to seminars and simulation activities, we use a blend of teaching methods to develop your understanding of midwifery practice.

At King’s, we know it’s important to bring day-to-day practice into the lecture theatre. Our lecturers are registered midwives who give an honest insight into the profession.

Career prospects

Every element of this programme prepares you for practice. When it’s time to graduate, you’re ready to provide high quality care to women, from pregnancy to the postnatal period.

Our mentoring programme means you can access support and advice from working midwives. They’ll support you during your studies, and throughout your first year of work.

Many of our midwives stay on to work at the trusts where they completed placements. Others secure roles at one of our other NHS trusts partners or at other hospitals around the UK.

You also have the option of continuing your study to specialise further. Or why not choose a different (but just as rewarding) career path like teaching, research, or management?

Career destinations

Midwives who graduate from King's are actively recruited by both national and international employers. Many are involved in innovative practices and others work as independent midwives. Many return for further graduate study in midwifery or women's health.
