"summary": "The MSc Midwifery programme will enable you to build on your existing skills as an adult nurse, and develop professional competency as a midwife. You will graduate with a Masters in Midwifery and you will be eligible to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) as a Midwife.\n\nMidwifery is a rewarding, dynamic and highly skilled profession. This course will equip students with the knowledge, skills and attributes to deliver woman-centred, compassionate, safe and effective care. You will have the opportunity to learn in our new state-of-the-art Simulation Centre and complete practice placements in a range of settings.\n\nOur personal tutor system for student support is highly regarded, and we were awarded the Best Student Experience award in the 2021 Student Nursing Times Awards.\n\nThis programme has been co-designed with all relevant stakeholders including maternity service users and carers, midwifery students and practice partners to ensure adequate preparation for midwifery practice on completion. The programme will ensure you meet all requirements for registration as a midwife on successful completion including systematic examination of the newborn.\n\nThe programme is taught by experts in Midwifery who will support you in becoming a caring, autonomous and evidence based practitioner incorporating leadership skills and working in partnership with women, families, and communities. Our focus on interdisciplinary learning throughout the two-year programme will enrich your experience and help prepare you for professional practice.\n\nTo be eligible to apply, applicants must be currently employed as an Adult Nurse by a HSC Trust within N Ireland. Successful applicants will be exempt from programme tuition fees.\n\nApplicants should consider implications and/or changes to their contract of employment to which QUB assumes no responsibility. Applicants must discuss financial or contractual considerations directly with their employer, QUB is unable to advise. QUB will not be liable for any financial or other associated losses.\n\nPlacements during your midwifery programme are normally within one HSCT in NI, however you may also be required to undertake placements in other NI HSCTs.",
