Nursing courses
The School of Health and Social Work has a long-established reputation as a centre for excellence for healthcare education.
In the field of Nursing we offer a variety of courses that cover the following areas:
Pre-registration
Get started at Herts with your career in nursing. The profession's contribution to health care is expanding, providing an increasing range of career opportunities for the graduate nurse.
Post-registration
If you are a qualified nurse or other health professional looking to extend your educational qualifications and enhance your skills, you can choose from a wide range of courses from stand-alone modules to Bachelor's and Master's degrees.
Whatever post-registration course you choose it will challenge you academically and provide you with a solid foundation in evidence-based practice. The key benefit of the post-registration courses is that you can still develop your skills and knowledge while continuing to work and earn.
