Bachelor of Midwifery

Adelaide University

As a midwife, you will be a trusted guide, mentor, and source of strength during one of life’s most profound experiences. You'll support women and their families through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and beyond – witnessing the arrival of new life while offering essential care and wisdom in the critical postnatal period. Your guidance will empower new parents with the confidence and skills they need to thrive in their new roles. You’ll be there for one of the most significant moments in a family’s life. Long after mother and baby have returned home, your compassion, expertise and dedication will be remembered. The Bachelor of Midwifery at Adelaide University equips you for a fulfilling career in maternity care. Emphasising woman and family-centred care, the program ensures you develop the skills to meet the social, emotional, physical, and cultural needs of the women and families you support throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

Learn in cutting-edge facilities, including an on-campus simulated hospital that mirrors real-world scenarios with birthing suites, a special care nursery and a postnatal area.
