Course Overview

The University of Suffolk has a great deal of experience in running Foundation Degrees as well as a number of pre-registration programs including nursing, midwifery, radiography, and social work programs, and this experience, alongside significant input from employers, has informed the structure and content of this new program. A key aspect is a partnership between the University and local health care providers within the NHS, Private, Voluntary, and Independent Sectors. This partnership enables you to learn whilst in employment combining classroom-based theory and practical experience from work-based learning. Students on the FDA Health and Wellbeing course at the University benefit from close working relationships with the lecturing team and other experts in the field of health and care from our practice partners in the NHS and other local health and care providers. You will benefit from the fact that academic staff here get to know every student as an individual, and will support you through your academic journey with us.
