Course Summary

You can choose to study a two year Diploma in Higher Education in Operating Department Practice or a three year Bachelor of Science (BSc) with Honours in Operating Department Practice. Both of these awards lead to eligibility to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) for registration as an ODP. The BSc can also be studied via an apprenticeship route for applicants who are in relevant employment and sponsored by their employer (Please note that students must already be employed and the University does not provide any jobs for students in this regard).
