Overview

This page covers Nursing (Mental Health) across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Mental Health Nursing combines taught modules with placement or laboratory time, and the placement element is what varies most between departments.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
