We work in partnership with several colleges in the South West, providing a variety of accessible routes in to Higher Education throughout the region.
In addition, through the University of Plymouth Peninsula Schools of Medicine and Dentistry (PU PSMD), the University of Plymouth is responsible for a large part of the nursing and midwifery training in the region. Our students develop strong consultation and diagnostic skills and emerge as well-rounded clinicians, ready for the NHS of the future.
