Graduates can expect to find a job immediately, as a nursing degree has one of the highest employability rates of all degrees. Nursing is also increasingly becoming a career of choice for school-leavers.
If you want unrivalled flexibility and the daily satisfaction that comes from changing people’s lives, consider a nursing degree. “The biggest reward of being a nurse is being able to give something back. It’s about the privilege of being able to step into somebody’s life at a time of joy or crisis and really make a difference.
Student nurses specialise in one of four areas of care: adult; child; mental health; and learning disability. The three-year full-time degree is split equally between academic study and placements, so students apply their knowledge in the workplace right from the start.
Nursing can offer so many career choices, both nationally and internationally. There are so many opportunities to diversify – whatever time I am at in my life, there will always be a way to manage my personal life and my career.
Nurses invest in the communities they live in and create the spark needed to improve the lives of those around them. The passion and selfless dedication nurses exhibit daily is creating change on local, national and international levels.
