University of Stirling

High quality nursing is one of the core components of any health service and the University of Stirling is a recognised leader in the field of nurse education. The University provides nursing courses in Stirling, Inverness and Stornoway. There are around 400 students at the Inverness Campus in the Centre for Health Science. Most students study undergraduate courses leading to registration as nurses or midwives, with a small number studying for postgraduate Masters or Doctoral degrees.

Providing continuing professional education for those at the front line in the health service is also an essential remit of the University of Stirling’s Department of Nursing & Midwifery and there are a number of innovative courses for nurse practitioners particularly in the field of prescribing medicine.
  
The department also has a thriving research ethos and there are 4 main research programmes:
    - improving health outcomes
    - understanding patient and family experiences
    - enhancing self care and self management
    - participation and decision making
