Snapshot

Midwives provide critical care at one of the most important times in a woman’s life. This degree will provide you with the practical skills and knowledge needed to expertly provide that care.

You can study midwifery online and complete your intensive clinical workshops at UniSA’s dedicated facilities dedicated at the Whyalla campus. Here, you’ll get to hone your skills in our clinician-led, authentic simulated hospital environment.

Benefit from a strong focus on theory with hands-on experience, including industry placements to prepare you for clinical practice, following women during their unique pregnancies, births and postnatal journeys.

Further study opportunities may include a Graduate Certificate in Perinatal Mental Health, Master of Midwifery, or Master of Health Services Management.

What you'll need

Students who elect to study this program externally must attend mandatory on-campus workshops, Continuity of Care Experiences (CoCE), and undertake all clinical placements in South Australia.

Students who undertake activities where interaction with women/the public is required for their degree, such as field or clinical placements/visits and in University clinics and gyms, must demonstrate they meet mandatory pre-placement conditional requirements. These include criminal history clearance, a Working with Children Check and immunisation requirements. Please visit the Clinical Placement Unit for information on key requirements, and to access the full student checklists. On entry to the qualification you'll be required to confirm that you meet the ‘Fitness to Practice in Clinical Placements’ requirements.

All students enrolled in a program leading to professional registration must be registered with the relevant national board. The student registration process is completed by the University with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) after enrolment. No fees apply.

Interstate students must be aware that they are required to attend regular on campus workshops and all clinical placements/CoCE in South Australia.

What you'll learn

You'll learn how to expertly provide midwifery care, along with the legal and ethical responsibilities of midwives. You'll also explore the political, socio-cultural, economic and technological influences on midwifery practices today.

With a strong focus on theory and practical experience, so much of your learning is done in our clinician-led, authentic simulated hospital environment. Here you'll have the opportunity to practice your skills through real-life scenarios and feel confident and prepared for clinical practice.

You’ll embark on clinical placements across metro, regional and rural hospitals and health services, under the supervision of registered midwives. During these placements you’ll be actively involved in a minimum of 30 normal births, and in the pre- and post-birth care of at least 100 women. You'll also follow 15 women through their pregnancy and birth journeys through the Continuity of Care Experience (CoCE).

All students need to complete clinical placements and CoCE experiences within South Australia. They must be completed on a full-time basis, and shift work will be required over a seven-day roster. Due to the on-call nature of CoCE, students may be required to carry these out over more than one study period.

If you're a Registered Nurse looking to study this degree, you may be eligible to apply for credit.

You can gain an extra qualification and broaden your career prospects by completing a Diploma in Languages.

Rules & notes

Rules

1. The Bachelor of Midwifery is an undergraduate degree accredited by the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council (ANMAC) as a qualification leading to entry to the Register of Midwives with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA). The program accreditation requires students to complete the program in three years full-time or up to six years part-time.

2. All students must confirm that they meet the "Fitness to Practice in Clinical Placements" requirements upon entry to the program, on each re-enrolment, and as may be required by the Program Director.

3. Students in this program are required to be registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia. Students who are refused registration, or who have their registration rescinded, will be unable to continue in the program.

4. Students who are subject to an investigation by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulatory Agency (AHPRA) under the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law Act cannot participate in Clinical Placements/Continuity of Care experiences (CoCE) until the investigation is completed and the University is notified of the outcome.

5. Students must provide evidence of a current National Police Certificate (NPC) and a completed Working with Children Check (WWCC) on commencement to the program.

6. Students must meet the vaccination requirements for health professionals prior to commencing the program. Failure to meet vaccination requirements will limit placement opportunities and may preclude progression in the program.

7. Students must demonstrate full compliance with the program's Compulsory Conditional Evidence Requirements prior to allocation of a Clinical Placement and CoCE as outlined on the UniSA Clinical Placement Unit website https://study.unisa.edu.au/student-placements-and-internships/nursing-health-medical-sciences/cpu/.

8. All students who undertake the program, whether full-time, part-time, internal, or external, will be required to attend clinical placements on a full-time basis. Shift work will be required over a 7-day, 24-hour roster.

9. Clinical placements are an integral component of the program and are undertaken in health agencies in metropolitan, rural or remote South Australia. Interstate students who accept an offer will be required to acknowledge that their placements and CoCE will all be based in South Australia.

10. Students are required to satisfy the standard of dress, behaviour and fitness for practice as prescribed by institutions in which clinical practicum placements are undertaken. This also applies to students undertaking Horizon Hospital and Health Service (HHHS) activities.

11. To achieve the standards required by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia, students are required to participate in, and document, the number of episodes of care experiences prescribed by UniSA Clinical and Health Sciences and specified by Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council.

12. Students are required to attend compulsory on-campus intensive workshops/ seminars for some courses. Where possible, compulsory on-campus workshops/ seminars for courses scheduled in the same study period will be timetabled to minimise the duration that students are required to be on campus.

13. Students undertaking midwifery studies in Australia must practice in accordance with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia Midwife Standards for Practice. If a student is unable to provide care to individuals due to religious, cultural or other reasons, the student will be unable to successfully complete course objectives and assessments within this program. This rule also applies to peer group work in classes.

14. Students who have completed a leave of absence, and/or not engaged in an Experiential Learning Activity (ELA) course in the previous 12-month period or who have failed an ELA will be required to undertake an 'IBMW Compulsory Module' for which a fee may will be charged.

Notes

1. The "Fitness to Practice in Clinical Placements Requirement Statements" advise potential applicants and students of the requirements necessary to undertake a clinical placement as a student in preparation for entry (registration) into the nursing and midwifery professions or for specialist or advanced practice qualifications.

2. Students with a disability or chronic health condition may be able to have reasonable adjustments made to teaching and learning, assessment, clinical practice and other activities to enable them to participate in their course and meet the Fitness to Practice in Clinical Placements requirements. Reasonable adjustments should not fundamentally change the nature of the Fitness to Practice in Clinical Placements requirements.

3. Due to the nature of the Continuity of Care Experience (CoCE), students may be required to carry these out over more than one study period, hence receiving an interim (I) grade for the course. All interim notations will be converted to a non-graded pass or fail grade within one academic year in accordance with the University's Assessment Policies and Procedures Manual.

4. Students are advised that a current South Australian driver's licence may be required by some clinical venues.

5. Some CoCE may occur outside normal teaching periods. All midwifery students must register CoCE women, attend the required orientation and be compliant with conditional evidence at all times.

6. Students who have completed a Bachelor of Nursing or equivalent and are registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) may be eligible to receive 36.0 units of credit towards the Bachelor of Midwifery.

Study hours

For each course you study, you will need to allocate time for various classes such as lectures, tutorials, workshops, seminars and practicals. Plus you will need additional hours to study in your own time to complete assignments, readings and projects, as well as to contribute to online discussion forums (independent study). So as a general rule, if you are studying full-time you would need to allocate 12–26 hours of study when at university and 14–28 hours of independent study per week.

Assessment

Your studies will incorporate practical, professionally focused and research-based learning, so assessment types will vary, including:

quizzes
presentations
debates
assignments
portfolios
clinical activities
exams
online activities

Global opportunities

Enrich your studies and your life – make overseas study part of your qualification. You may have the option to undertake an exchange, short-term program or study tour overseas while you study. We have links with universities worldwide, as well as a range of travel grants available to make going overseas much more accessible.

You can choose short-term or semester-long study from a range of universities and countries depending on your area of study and cultural interests.

How do I apply?

There are a number of ways to apply to study UniSA's undergraduate and postgraduate coursework degrees.

Applications for admission into the University of South Australia’s undergraduate and most postgraduate degrees are made via the South Australian Tertiary Admissions Centre (SATAC). Visit satac.edu.au and follow the links.

For the MBA degrees please apply through the UniSA MBA Application Portal. Applications for a small number of degrees are submitted direct to UniSA through our Apply Online portal. It will be noted on the degree page if you need to apply via Apply Online.

Postgraduate study by research
For information on applying to do postgraduate study by research, including Master of Research, PhDs or Doctorates, please visit unisa.edu.au/resdegrees.
Is there a closing date for applications?

Undergraduate
Yes. The deadline to apply to study a degree at UniSA for semester one (commencing late February) and be given equal consideration is in early December. While you may be able to apply after this date, you are not guaranteed to be considered equally with other applicants and your application may not be assessed in time for the main round of offers (mid January). Some degrees will not make any offers after the main offer round. Please click here find all of the key dates for applications here.

Postgraduate
Most postgraduate degrees do not have a closing date for applications. However, there are exceptions, so it is best to check – either on the SATAC website, Apply Online or the degree homepage. Postgraduate offers are normally ‘rolling’, meaning they may be sent out at any time up until the program starts. This also means that applications may close at any time without warning, if the quota is filled earlier. For this reason, postgraduate applications should be submitted without delay. For more information, please contact our Future Student Enquiries team on (08) 8302 2376 or via the online enquiry form.
What credit can I receive for previous studies?

Credit transfer or advanced standing

You may be eligible to receive a credit transfer or advanced standing for your chosen UniSA degree based on your previous studies, if they are in a related area at an equivalent or higher level. Receiving a credit transfer will reduce the number of courses you undertake within the degree, and may also reduce the overall duration of your degree.

Recognised prior learning

If you have related industry experience, you may also be eligible to receive recognised prior learning for this experience. Receiving recognised prior learning will normally reduce the number of courses you undertake within the degree, and can reduce the duration of the degree.

How do I get credit?

Credit transfer and recognition of prior learning is assessed on a case-by-case basis by the Program Director who will discuss your prior learning and experience with you to ascertain what credit you may be eligible for.

Many of our credit transfer arrangements are listed on our online Credit Assessor.
Can I speak to someone regarding my study options?
