About Adult Nursing, MSc - at Buckinghamshire New University

If you are a compassionate, kind and caring person who wants a career where you can make a real difference, then nursing could be for you.

You’ll become part of a team that works to offer outstanding patient-centred care, guiding your patients through their most vulnerable moments and making a difference to their lives.

With BNU, you’ll benefit from our combined learning approach of theory and practice, supportive and experienced course team, and our specialist facilities.

NHS Training grant of £5,000; check eligibility criteria at the NHS website. 

Our MSc in pre-registration Adult Nursing is designed for high achieving graduates, recognising that you’ll bring transferable academic skills, healthcare experience and valuable life experience to your studies.

This fast-track two-year degree programme integrates postgraduate academic study alongside practice-based learning. It is underpinned by a strong collaboration between the University, service users (experts by experience) and our NHS practice partners, helping you to gain the knowledge and skills you need for your future career in adult nursing.

We will support and nurture you throughout the programme, so you can become compassionate, proficient, confident, and digitally-able registered adult nurses. We will also prepare you for future leadership and specialist roles within the integrated care system. 

As professional nurses and educators, staff bring a wealth of clinical expertise and research activity. An existing and expanding portfolio of health and social care courses, including midwifery, physiotherapy, operating department practitioner, social worker, physician associate as well as specialist community and public health nurses, provide opportunities for inter-professional learning.

In addition, expert specialist nurses regularly deliver tailored sessions and service users (experts by experience) also support on the programme. This will allow you to benefit from their experiences and expertise, insights and perspectives to enhance your learning.

At our Uxbridge Campus, in West London, we have impressive facilities with state-of-the-art equipment. You’ll get to recreate real scenarios in realistic ‘wards’ so when you’re out on placement you’ll be familiar with your surroundings and be confident in your adult nursing skills.

With our simulation facilities, you’ll be able to learn and practice with equipment that is as close to the real thing as possible, enabling you to build your skills and knowledge in a safe and supportive environment.

The simulation areas are equipped to a national standard of excellence. Our facilities offer a high-fidelity environment, which includes the use of NHS approved consumables, genuine functioning equipment and a combination of actors and technology enhanced manikins. The essential element of de-brief in simulation is undisputed; audio/visual technology is available and widely used by the teaching teams to enhance feedback to learners.

To complement the theoretical study, you will spend time out on practice. The main NHS Trusts we are currently working with include:

  • Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust
  • The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
  • London North West Healthcare NHS Trust
  • Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust.
  • Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust.

We also have a range of non-home-base placements in different fields, such as:

  • BMI Clementine Churchill
  • BUPA Bushey
  • Nursing homes
  • Medihome
  • Learning disabilities facilities.

On successful completion of the MSc in Adult Nursing, you'll graduate as a registered nurse and will be able to practice in the UK or explore opportunities of working abroad in the future.

Many of our students are employed by the Trust that they completed their placements at, and we are currently seeing a demand for adult nurses across the NHS Trusts we work with.

Nursing is a broad area and you'll have the chance to go into many careers, such as:

  • staff nurse working in an acute or rehabilitation centre
  • practice nurse working in a GP surgery
  • community nurse, for example district nurse
  • working in nursing homes
  • working with private health care providers
  • prison nursing
  • the armed forces
  • nurse researcher.
