ABOUT
Introduction:
Care, compassion, competence, communication, courage and commitment: these core NHS values are embedded in our teaching. The World Health Organisation has declared 2020 as “Year of the Nurse”, recognising the huge part they play in day-to-day healthcare. It’s an important and deeply rewarding role.
Through our flexible curriculum and blended learning approach – building up your theoretical knowledge of mental health care strategies, and then putting it into practice on placement with service users and providers – you’ll develop your holistic, therapeutic and decision-making skills in line with the demands of modern nursing. Taught by experienced practitioners – and with the additional input of service users and carer groups – you’ll learn from the very best on your journey towards accreditation as a Registered Mental Health Nurse.
What you’ll study
Our course gives you a robust knowledge of mental health nursing practice – as well as the wider sector – both in and outside of the classroom. It’s the perfect combination of theory and practice, allied to great facilities, modules built around the latest research, and teachers who’ve worked for years in professional healthcare. You’ll develop your nursing knowledge based around:
- A holistic view of a person’s’ psychological and physical needs to support recovery
- The chance to refine and apply your therapeutic skills
- A practice-learning environment, with simulated exercises and activities
- Placements in a variety of healthcare settings
- Some fantastic opportunities for career development.
Our nursing degree isn’t just distinguished by the amount of time you’ll spend on placement – it’s how early those placements opportunities arrive on your course. From the outset, we’ll ensure you’re in hands-on, practice-based environments, supporting local healthcare providers and putting your theoretical skills to the test. Alongside the “interprofessional” nature of our teaching – which connects you with experts from across the sector, broadening your skills and knowledge – you’ll have the perfect grounding in mental health nursing.
The five strands of nursing at NTU
Our course combines foundational healthcare knowledge with teaching that’s specific to the field of mental health nursing. With this approach, we’ll help you to develop a well-rounded understanding of the sector, as well as the specialist skills you’ll need as a registered mental health nurse. Our course is built around five “strands”, namely:
- Applied bio-, psycho- and social sciences
- Clinical practice and nursing skills
- Professional concept, philosophies and theories
- Preparation for practice
- Personal and professional development
Across these strands, you’ll develop the core knowledge, skills and attributes you’ll need for a successful career in mental health nursing – both at home and abroad. You’ll have the chance to complete care-based work placements – bedding in your theoretical skills – and pick from an exciting range of specialist electives, outside the specific field of mental health. This way, you’ll have you the chance to broaden your knowledge and experience even further, making you a great candidate for a huge range of nursing roles.
Careers and employability
With the House of Commons Health Committee announcing the need for 22,000 new nurses by 2021 – and NHS England raising funding to £20.5 billion – the opportunities for young professionals in the healthcare sector are huge. As a graduate, you could pursue a career as a:
- Registered Mental Health Nurse
- Community Mental Health Nurse
- Clinical Nurse Specialist
- Non-Medical Prescriber
- Training in psychological therapies
- Advanced Nurse Practitioner
- Consultant Nurse

From here, you’ll be able to practice as a mental health nurse – and with the networking opportunities you’ll get on your placements, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to build a professional reputation with healthcare providers across the region.
