The Research Institute for Social Sciences and the School of Nursing and Midwifery have a developing portfolio of active researchers and supervisors. We have academics from a range of nursing and midwifery backgrounds who are able to support Masters, MPhil and PhD students in a variety of research topics around nursing, using a range of research methodologies. We usually work in small supervisory teams across the University, to ensure that students receive the best possible supervision at all times. Specialist areas of supervisory support include the areas of end of life and palliative care, respiratory nursing, bereavement, loss and transition, learning disability and user and carer involvement in research.

The Clinical Education Centre, which opened in September 2004, is a contemporary, state-of-the-art, building which houses not only the School of Nursing and Midwifery, but also incorporates part of the well-established Undergraduate and Postgraduate School of Medicine. The spacious and light interior of the building consists of seminar rooms, extensive clinical skills laboratories, inter-professional Health Library and IT laboratories, which not only provide high-tech learning and teaching facilities, but also allow and encourage multi-disciplinary learning and team working, an approach that we believe is key to developing a professional healthcare workforce for the future.
