Study Nursing and Community Health
Career-focused degrees
Whether focusing on children, adults, mental health, learning disabilities or professional studies, our nursing degrees offer students the opportunity to develop caring careers that can transform the lives of patients, families and communities.
We have a number of collaborative partnerships with several NHS Health Boards, third-sector organisations (such as the Scottish Association for Mental Health and the British Heart Foundation), hospices, and European institutes and networks.
