At undergraduate level we offer a four-year Bachelor of Nursing with Honours with registration as a Nurse (Adult branch). The quality of the student experience is second to none with the Guardian rating Nursing at the University of Edinburgh at the top of their league table for the last 10 years. At postgraduate level, Nursing Studies offers an MSc in Advancing Nursing Practice, a Masters of Nursing in Clinical Research, an MSc by Research and a PhD programme.Nursing Studies has a long tradition of being one of the most research active nursing departments in the UK. This position has been recently endorsed with an excellent result in the Research Exercise Framework. The staff in Nursing Studies returned in the recent REF into Unit of Assessment 22 - Social Work and Social Policy which reflects our time-honoured affiliations in social science research. Colleagues from several different subject areas in the university with a key research focus in health research came together including those from Public Health, Social Policy and Social Work. Our research achieved overall results of 81% as world leading and internationally excellent, and indicates a research environment which is 100% world-leading. Nursing at Edinburgh has a longstanding history of research collaboration across these disciplines and given the current emphasis on the care integration agenda, this puts us in an excellent position to contribute to the development of this policy initiative.This social sciences perspective gives us a clear focus to much of our research work whilst not precluding some excellent interprofessional work with other colleagues from medicine and science and engineering. Nursing Studies has excellent opportunities for postgraduate study in this respect as we are able to draw supervision from a wide range of colleagues from the arts to the hard end of science. We have a vibrant community of postgraduate research students with 31 PhD and MSc by Research students currently enrolled.Find out more at https://www.ed.ac.uk/health/subject-areas/nursing-studies
