Overview

The Primary Maternity Care programme from Griffith University develops your expertise in research, leadership and evidence-based practice, equipping you to design, evaluate and deliver maternity care within a wellness model. You'll graduate prepared to make a meaningful difference to mothers, babies, families and communities.

Please note: Successful completion of this programme does not lead to eligibility to apply for registration as a midwife. Prospective students seeking eligibility for registration should refer to the Bachelor of Midwifery (1354).

Career

As a graduate, you'll be prepared to take on advanced roles in the design and delivery of primary maternity care and women's health services. With expertise in legal, ethical and professional issues, cultural diversity and partnership-based care, you'll be well-positioned to influence service delivery and maternity reform.

Career opportunities exist across hospitals, community health services, policy agencies and not-for-profit organisations, as well as in leadership, advocacy and research roles.
