Practised in hospital and community settings, modern midwifery emphasises the promotion of health and the management of pregnancy to ensure happy and successful deliveries. Designed by midwives for midwives the programme aims to produce autonomous practitioners, well versed in the theory and practice of midwifery. The course is taught for 45 weeks each year and there are seven weeks fixed holidays during each year. You will spend half of the programme in academic study and half in clinical practice. Clinical placements provide students with an insight into the different cultural and social influences upon child-bearing women and helps develop a broader perspective on the delivery of midwifery care.
