Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Operating Department Practice

Program Overview

On this course, you develop the skills you need to become a qualified operating department practitioner (ODP), able to offer coordinated, patient-centred peri-operative care alongside surgeons, anaesthetists and theatre nurses.

This degree is designed for healthcare workers with an interest in becoming registered operating department practitioners, able to offer compassionate, safe and effective care through the peri-operative period, a time when people can be at their most vulnerable.

With an emphasis on reflective, practice-based development, your studies and training take place both at the university and in clinical practice, where you work alongside a qualified mentor in a range of peri-operative care settings: anaesthetics, operating theatres, emergency departments, intensive care and recovery.

On completion of this course, you are eligible to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council as an operating department practitioner.
