Bachelor of Nursing
Would you like to build a career out of making a difference in people’s lives? Nurses do just that by providing healthcare in times of need – from acute health issues in emergency departments to home visits that assist the elderly to remain in their homes for longer.
Combine the professional person-centered approach of nursing with psychosocial and biological sciences as you learn the skills needed to become a Registered Nurse. You’ll also be equipped with lifetime access to a web-based ePortfolio, to showcase your knowledge and experience to prospective employees when you graduate.
You can complete your Nursing degree in three years of full-time study or within six years of part-time study.
