Master of Midwifery

The WA Department of Health offers Nursing and Midwifery scholarships to help cover the cost of course fees. To learn more about eligibility criteria and the scholarships available, please visit the WA Department of Health website.

Our Master of Midwifery is the only postgraduate midwifery course in Australia that does not require you to have a nursing qualification to enter. It also offers Commonwealth Supported Places (CSP) to domestic applicants, which means part of your course fees are subsidised by the Australian Government. 

Midwives are registered health professionals trained to support and care for women during pregnancy, labour and birth. They work in clinics, hospitals, community practices, birthing centres or in the home. 

The Master of Midwifery can be studied over two years full-time or four-years part-time. Course content blends evidence-based theory with more than 1000 hours of supervised clinical practice and covers physical, biological, psychological and social sciences.
