Course Overview

Get ready to take your first steps on an exciting journey towards a career in Optometry. We'll give you the opportunity to gain the knowledge and practical skills you'll need to complete your professional training and become highly employable. As one of the UK's newest Optometry departments, we are committed to offering you a learning experience that's second-to-none, and small class sizes mean a personal approach to our teaching where you'll be well supported to reach your goals. This course is aligned to the requirements of the General Optical Council (GOC) and as a new course, currently has provisional approval* from the General Optical Council. We combine scientific principles in Optometry and vision sciences with practical clinical skills from the first year.
