Program overview
A master degree preparing for adult nursing practice, covering clinical skills, pathophysiology, pharmacology, evidence based care, professional practice and extensive clinical placements.
At IELTS 7.0 this carries the highest English requirement at Bangor, which is standard across British nursing because patient safety depends on communication.
Master of Science in Adult Nursing is taught at Bangor University, a public university in Wales with full degree awarding powers. Because the adult nursing master is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after you finish. No job offer or sponsor is needed for the adult nursing master, but you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. Your student visa covers the length of the adult nursing master plus a short period afterwards. UK rules from January 2024 bar a dependant partner or child on taught courses, so the adult nursing master does not support a family move.
Candidates for Master of Science in Adult Nursing present a completed bachelor degree at 60 percent. The English requirement is IELTS 7.0 with no band below 6.5, and tuition for the adult nursing master is recorded at GBP 21,000. Bangor charges no application fee, and no scholarship is recorded against the adult nursing master. The adult nursing master lists only two entry windows a cycle. Apply Study Visa manages your the adult nursing master application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.

Admission requirements
Who can apply (guide for international students):
- Education: A completed bachelor degree from a recognised university, at the percentage stated.
- English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 7.0 overall with no band below 6.5; TOEFL iBT 75; PTE Academic 72 with no component below 67; or the Duolingo English Test at 130.
- Application and deposit: Bangor charges NO application fee, so applying costs you nothing. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.
- Scholarship: No scholarship is recorded against this programme. Budget the full tuition.
- Additional requirement: Practising as a nurse in the UK requires registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council, assessed separately from the degree. Clinical placement availability for international students, enhanced background checks and immunisation records all apply. Confirm placement capacity in writing before accepting an offer.
- Work rights: the adult nursing master is a degree, so it supports a UK Graduate Route application giving two years of unsponsored work after you finish. No dependant may accompany you on a taught course.
