Courses

The University Certificate in Practice Skills for Health & Social Care

The programme provides a range of ‘bite-size’ 10 credit modules at an introductory level. The modules are ideal for people wishing to sample higher education.

For more information, please see the University Certificate in Practice Skills for Health & Social Care course pages.


Foundation degrees

Foundation degrees are accessible to people who may not meet the traditional entry criteria to study for a full honours degree, in the first instance.

For more information, please see the Foundation degree pages.


Nursing

The faculty has a range of programmes at honours degree level leading to professional qualifications such as nursing and midwifery. 

Key to the process of recruitment and selection is a role specification which identifies the competencies which successful applicants are required to possess.   Emotional intelligence is increasingly discussed as having a potential role in healthcare practice.  In addition, our local NHS stakeholders agree that applicants should demonstrate competence in interpersonal skills and decision making, and demonstrate understanding of the professional requirements of pre-qualifying healthcare programmes.    

Clinical Placements are undertaken throughout North Lincolnshire, North East Lincolnshire, and Hull and East Yorkshire NHS Trusts and are determined by your home address.  They could be undertaken in acute hospitals, the community, the private sector, the prison service, nursing and residential homes, nurseries and schools, social services or anywhere where care is provided, and they are linked to the course of study.  Excess travelling expenses may be available.
