Information for current healthcare students
This page is for students taking QMU healthcare degrees through a collaborative partner arrangement. Welcome to the QMU community!
The programmes offered through collaborative partnerships are delivered by the partner institution, with quality assurance from QMU. This means that local faculty provide the teaching and student support but QMU ensures the standards of teaching, learning and assessment are in line with the equivalent programme at QMU and meet the expectations of UK Higher Education.

Information about professional registration
Please note that programmes delivered overseas do not lead automatically to professional registration in the UK.
The BSc (Hons) Nursing degree delivered by BUE is designed to meet the requirements of the Supreme Council of Nursing in Egypt. While this programme is designed to prepare nurses to work in Egypt we recognise that some students may wish to work in other countries. All countries have their own unique professional regulatory requirements and no nursing programme worldwide is designed, or able to meet all these requirements. This does not mean that nurses who complete the BSc (Hons) Nursing cannot work in other countries, but it does mean that depending on the regulations in each country, you may be required to complete some additional practice placement hours or sit some exams.

The partners are liaising actively with the Greek and UK governments in order to resolve the difficulties that have emerged. Please contact Metropolitan College for more up-to-date information.
