Course summary
If you're a highly motivated graduate with care experience who wishes to become a registered adult nurse and gain an MSc in an accelerated two year timeframe, the MSc Nursing graduate entry programme is perfect for you.
The programme builds your academic skill sets, professional responsibility and technical complexity related to patient care throughout the two years. Successful completion of this innovative programme will ensure you will meet the registration requirements of the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
The programme meets the NMC standards for pre-registration nursing education. The NMC (2018a) reviewed their standards with the publication of 'Future Nurse: Standards of Proficiency for Registered Nurses' and this programme reflects the comprehensive range of subject knowledge, clinical skills and leadership required of the Registered Nurse. Higher Education (HE) quality standards through Quality Academic Assurance Standards (QAA) are met through the Higher Education Credit Framework for England bodies (Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education, 2018; 2021). In addition, the programme philosophy addresses contemporary challenges faced by health care practitioners in providing effective clinical care, recognising the key issues developed in the NHS in England at 75: priorities for the future (NHS, 2023).
The Keele ‘Future Nurse’ MSc Nursing programme has been designed to meet the seven NMC platforms, which underpin pre-registration nursing education (NMC, 2018a). These require you, regardless of your chosen field, to demonstrate core knowledge, skills, standards, behaviours to meet people’s needs, as well as field-specific knowledge and skills as required in either adult, children’s, learning disability or mental health nursing. Two NMC annexes (A and B) detail extensive communication skills and clinical procedures, which are also included in the programme:

- Platform 2: Promoting health and preventing ill-health.
- Platform 3: Assessing needs and planning care.
- Platform 4: Providing and evaluating care.

The list of modules are indicative and we expect to offer the same modules, however this may change due to staff availability. If the modules change we will inform you during the admissions process.
Modules
The module details given below are indicative, they are intended to provide you with an idea of the range of subjects that are taught to our current students. The modules that will be available for you to study in future years are prone to change as we regularly review our teaching to ensure that it is up-to-date and informed by the latest research and teaching methods, as well as student voice. The information presented is therefore not intended to be construed and/or relied upon as a definitive list of the modules available in any given year.
Nursing Care in Context and Health Promotion
Nursing Care in Context and Health Promotion (30 Credits)
The aim of this module is to build upon the graduate entry nursing student's previous health care related knowledge and skills and develop a critical awareness of current philosophical, theoretical, ethical and legal perspectives and parameters and new insights which are at the forefront of nursing practice for the health and well-being of people. To provide an overview of prevention of ill-health and health promotion in relation to epidemiology, demography, genomics, global patterns of health and wellbeing outcomes and how these impact on life choices.
This module introduces concepts of the wider determinants of health, underpinning factors relating to health and wellness across the lifespan, and the role of the nurse as a health promoter. Students will study these topics relating to physical and mental health in society and community as a whole, as well as focusing on their own field of nursing.
Promoting health is a key feature of the nursing role across all fields and forms one of the seven platforms for pre-registration nursing education (NMC 2018). Students will be able to apply the knowledge gained in this theory module to their practice settings, and to their career as a qualified nurse.
Research Methods in Nursing
Research Methods in Nursing (15 Credits)

Within the module, published literature will be explored specific to the student’s field of nursing and area of interest. This module focuses on the important topic of evidence-based practice in nursing. Knowledge and skills used in nursing need to have an evidence base to be safe and effective for people with healthcare needs requiring nursing care.
This module will enable students to critique nursing studies to understand what constitutes robust research in nursing and how this applies to their field of nursing practice. The knowledge and skills gained in this module will support the student in the final year of their studies when they will undertake a dissertation, and as a qualified nurse to enable them to ensure care is evidence - based, and challenge this as required.

Dissertation
Dissertation (30 Credits)
This second year module contributes towards the MSc Nursing award and eligibility to register with the Nursing & Midwifery Council.

"We have had a lot of support. I have had the best mentor and it has made me the person I am today."
Teaching, learning and assessment
The course structure ensures you study a range of modules that are highly relevant to adult nursing. During your two year programme you will study 10 core modules.
The programme is divided between theoretical learning and practice learning modules, underpinned by the NMC Standards (NMC, 2018a). You will be assessed in all theory and practice modules and this will contribute towards you overall degree classification. Your programme will be split 50% theory and 50% practice to allow you to achieve the 2,300 theory hours and 2,300 practice hours for the course (inclusive of the RPL). You will undertake 90-credits of compulsory modules for each year for the duration of the two-year programme and all modules will be assessed at level 7. We have adopted the HEE Maximising Leadership Learning in the Pre-Registration Healthcare Curricula strategy (2018) and our curriculum threads- Focus on self, Working with others and Improving healthcare, into each year of the programme and is aligned to the Module.
In your first year you build and expand on the fundamentals of nursing practice including essential care and learn how to work in a professional setting. You also explore the concepts of nursing care in context, health promotion, pharmacology and develop a research plan for your dissertation.
In your second year you build on your experience and develop your skills in caring for patients with higher acuity requirements using clinical reasoning skills. You will develop leadership skills in practice, take on more responsibility and leadership in preparation for your professional transition from student nurse to registered professional. You will be prepared to manage complex nursing care to enhance the safety and quality of the patient experience. You will complete your dissertation project demonstrating the detailed application and findings of your study.
In your programme you will sometimes be expected to role play and engage in simulated clinical scenarios with other students, such as the practice and observation of practical skills in physical contact with other students. For some specific practices, this may necessitate modification of dress - e.g., to shorts and t-shirt. These activities will be conducted in a professional, safe, respectful and culturally sensitive way, under the supervision of academic staff, according to a defined protocol .
As with all our courses, you can expect to experience a stimulating blend of learning activities, from practice learning, simulation, problem based learning, tutorials, lectures and clinical skills workshops through to innovative web-based activities and inter-professional learning.
Each module will encourage you to demonstrate deep learning that includes subject-specific knowledge and transferable skills. Service user involvement in the programme will ensure that the concept of person-centeredness is explicit
We have a wide variety of innovative assessments that will develop and enhance your graduate skill set. These may include report writing, simulated activities, an MCQ exam, case studies, presentations, reflective writing, developing a research proposal, and undertaking a Masters dissertation.
