Midwifery

About this course

Midwifery is a profession dedicated to supporting women and their families through pregnancy, labour, birth, and the period immediately after. Midwives are autonomous practitioners who provide care across a continuum that spans the straightforward and the highly complex, working in hospitals, birth centres, and the community, and collaborating with obstetricians, neonatologists, and the wider multidisciplinary team when circumstances require it. The role demands clinical skill, scientific knowledge, and the capacity for the kind of compassionate, woman-centred care that makes a lasting difference to one of the most significant experiences in human life. At the University of the West of England, Bristol, this three-year, full-time degree leads to qualification as a registered midwife. You will study the anatomy and physiology of pregnancy and childbirth, pharmacology relevant to midwifer
