About this course

This course is for students who already have a degree in any subject and are looking for progression and further challenges which can be fulfilled by undertaking a rewarding and lifelong career within the nursing profession.

City is the first institution to offer an MSc of this kind, crossing both the adult and mental health nursing specialisms. The course was designed to meet the need of the healthcare sector and the ambitions of many nurses to be able to fully support their patients, both physically and mentally.

You will study a range of theoretical and practical modules covering key principles and practices in adult and mental health nursing, including:

  • acute care, diagnostics and treatment

  • long term care, recovery and rehabilitation

  • leading and managing in healthcare practice.

    You will spend around half your time on clinical placements in a variety of settings including:

  • specialist units

  • hospital wards

  • primary and community care settings

  • patients’ homes.

    Most placements are within our 'community of practice', a partnership of healthcare providers within Central, East and North East London, which will enable you to gain a detailed understanding of the local community and how services are structured.

    Our Clinical Skills Centre is equipped with a simulated six bed ward and a range of specialist equipment where you will practice your skills in a realistic but controlled environment.

    The MSc in Adult and Mental Health Nursing prepares you for a rewarding career at the forefront of modern healthcare. You will graduate as a nurse eligible to register with the NMC as an adult and mental health nurse, leaving you equipped to support the delivery of quality healthcare in a contemporary health service.

    Accreditation: This course is accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
