Course Summary

**Course overview** - Our Sexual Health Studies course is the UK’s first ever non-clinical undergraduate specialised degree programme and could lead to a career in sexual health services. - Foundation Entry degree courses are ideal if you’ve got the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications to directly join an Honours programme. It’s entirely unique, and a great stepping stone to degree study. - You’ll develop specialist theoretical knowledge and communication skills to be able to care for clients accessing sexual health services. - You’ll study a range of different topics including: contraception, unplanned pregnancy, sexual health, asymptomatic screening for STIs, blood borne viruses, sexual health policy, safeguarding, sex and relationships education. **Why study with us** - You’ll learn practical skills including: rapid HIV testing, pregnancy testing and asymptomatic screening for Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs). - The programme is now more important than ever, with new regulations to make Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) compulsory in schools. - Our programme links theory with practice and also teaches you the lifelong skills of advanced communication, project management and innovation. **Further information** The School is committed to the values and principles of the NHS Constitution and these are integral to our programmes. The approaches to delivery and the content of our programmes aim to foster a culture which embraces the NHS Values of: - Working together for service users - Respect and dignity - Commitment to quality of care - Compassion - Improving lives - Everyone counts
