4-Term Pathway - International Foundation in Pharmacy, Health and Life Sciences - Continue to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Children's Nursing

Program Description

The International Foundation in Pharmacy, Health and Life Sciences prepares students for entry to Year 1 of a science-related undergraduate degree, including Physiotherapy, Pharmacy and Biomedicine at University of East Anglia. 

The Children’s Nursing degree will prepare students for essential nursing practice, as well as for specialist areas such as long-term conditions and complex and disabling healthcare issues. This includes conditions and challenges that are specific to young people. It also includes mental health care, as younger people living with long-term conditions are far more vulnerable to developing emotional disorders. 

Alongside this students will learn to work in close partnership with the families and carers of children in their care. 

As well as learning how to look after children who are unwell, students will also learn how to help foster healthy lifestyles in patients’ early years and adolescence, contributing to their health and wellbeing well into adulthood. 

The course will feature a 50/50 balance between theory and practice. Throughout the course, students will learn through first-hand practical experience. They’ll also work in collaboration with other healthcare students. This hands-on and collaborative approach is key to helping students achieve the best physical, emotional health and wellbeing outcomes.
