The practice of requiring undergraduate students to conduct clinical research has been criticised and has rightly caused concern. However, evidence from a small scale study provided here suggests that where post registration students are required to conduct clinical research, they are significantly more likely to continue research activities after qualifying. Experience of the University of Hull post-registration students (RSCN) and the 18 months post-registration midwifery programme has led us to question whether nursing and midwifery are 'research based'. The extent to which disciplines that provide research experience in initial training are likely to become 'research based' is questioned.

A research project carried out from 1991 to 1993 to investigate what is taught in midwifery programmes of education about race and culture discovered that very little had been published about the maternity needs of the Chinese community. In response to this, a specific unit of learning (15 hours) on issues in health and race was included in the diploma in higher education midwifery programme validated in 1992 at Humberside College of Health. In planning the delivery of this unit of learning, efforts have been made to help student midwives gain a realistic insight into how the needs of the multiracial community may be met.
