Why study Nursing?
Nursing is a profession with serious promotion opportunities. You start out as a staff nurse where you cover many areas. Which you can then specialise and gain a more senior role. The pay also gets higher the more senior you become.
Nursing is a very dynamic job. A typical day at work could be challenging yet rewarding. As well as this, with a career in nursing, you can work all over the world.
Nursing is one term for any number of jobs. A Nursing degree can be in midwifery, palliative care, school nursing, children’s nursing, adult nursing and many other areas. Your degree can therefore be tailored to make it relevant to your interests and you can switch roles relatively easily.
