| What it is | You study how to assess, care for, and support patients across hospitals, clinics, and community settings. This program combines classroom learning in anatomy, physiology, and nursing theory with supervised clinical placements where you provide direct patient care. It suits people who want hands-on healthcare work, can handle emotional demands, and are comfortable with responsibility for others' wellbeing. | This program trains you to become a registered nurse with the additional legal right to prescribe certain medications. Unlike a standard nursing degree, it includes specialized coursework in pharmacology and clinical decision-making that prepares you to diagnose and treat independently in specific practice settings. It suits people who want hands-on patient care combined with expanded clinical authority and the ability to manage medication decisions. | You study the science and skills of patient care, learning anatomy, pharmacology, and hands-on clinical practice to become a registered nurse. Unlike general science programs, nursing is direct-entry and includes mandatory clinical placements in hospitals and healthcare settings starting early. It suits people who want to combine science knowledge with direct patient interaction and are ready for the responsibility that comes with healthcare work. | Health Studies is a broad degree that explores how health systems, policies, and information work in society. You study topics like health management, statistics, finance, and health informatics rather than clinical medicine or hands-on patient care. The co-op option lets you do paid work placements alongside your studies, giving you real workplace experience in health organizations. |
