| What it is | You study the science and practice of patient care, learning anatomy, pharmacology, clinical skills, and how to work in hospitals and community settings.

It suits people who are confident they want to become a registered nurse and are ready to commit to a focused program from day one. | This program teaches you to become a registered nurse — you learn patient care, medical science, clinical skills, and how to work in hospitals and clinics. It combines classroom learning in anatomy, pharmacology, and nursing theory with hands-on practice in real healthcare settings. The program suits people who want direct patient contact, can handle emotional and physical demands, and are comfortable with science and responsibility for others' wellbeing. | This program teaches you nursing science and clinical skills, but it's designed for people who already have at least two years of university completed in another field. You'll earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing while completing the professional requirements to become a registered nurse. It suits career-changers and graduates from other programs who want to move into healthcare without starting over from first year. |
