B.Sc. Nursing

Course overview

B.Sc. Nursing prepares students for patient-care, health education and coordinated clinical work through biomedical study, nursing practice and supervised placements. It is a regulated care pathway distinct from medicine: nurses do not become doctors through this degree, and registration and scope must be checked with the applicable nursing authority.
