It provides an opportunity for students with relevant undergraduate qualifications to undertake a shortened program of study in nursing.

This course offers a Nurses and Midwives Board of NSW accredited program specifically orientated at postgraduate students from other disciplines and overseas registered nurses. You will study the application of physical and behavioural sciences to nursing, inquiry and evidence based practice principles, utilisation within nursing, and the care of individuals, families and groups from diverse backgrounds. The acquisition of nursing knowledge and skills will occur in campus-based simulated clinical practice settings, which will be consolidated as you undertake clinical placements in a variety of health care settings.
