This Bachelors in Nursing degree (BN) at Bangor University qualifies you to work as a registered nurse in the UK. Students, including those from Canada, also have the option to work in the UK for two years in UK after graduation. This allows you to gain experience and earn an income while working to transfer your qualifications back home. Registered nurses who hold this qualification provide care for people across the lifespan, including looking after the health of mother and baby. Studens will gain important hands on experience during placements in clinical areas which might include:

  • Acute sector general and specialist medical and surgical nursing
  • Critical care nursing (intensive and high dependency care, emergency department, theatres and recovery)
  • Community nursing in the home environment and primary care
