What it isYou study the science and practice of patient care, learning human anatomy, pharmacology, and clinical skills alongside supervised hospital and community placements. This is a direct entry program, meaning you begin nursing coursework immediately rather than completing general prerequisites first. It suits people who are confident they want to become registered nurses and are ready to combine classroom learning with hands-on patient care from the start.You enter this program without committing to a specific major, taking first-year courses across subjects like English, history, psychology, philosophy, and sociology. This gives you time to explore different areas of arts study before declaring a focus at the end of year one, rather than applying directly to a named program. It suits students who are interested in humanities and social sciences but unsure which direction fits them best.# Arts Degree (BA) + Master's Degree (MA or MAP or MIPP) You complete a four-year bachelor's degree in one of these humanities or social fields — English, History, languages, Politics, Social Policy, or Religious Studies — then continue directly into a related master's program without applying separately. This combined route saves time and lets you specialize deeper than a BA alone. It suits students who know they want advanced training in humanities or policy work and prefer a streamlined path from undergrad through graduate study.
