Overview

Nursing (Mental Health) [Pre-registration Nursing] is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. 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.

If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
