| What it is | You study nursing from day one, learning how to care for patients across different healthcare settings, combining classroom learning with supervised clinical practice. Direct entry means you enter the nursing program straight away rather than completing a general first year, so you start specialized courses immediately. This suits people who are confident about choosing nursing and want to focus entirely on building clinical and theoretical nursing skills. | You study engineering and health sciences together, focusing on how biology and chemistry apply to medical devices, treatments, and health problems. Unlike a standard engineering program, you're embedded in health sciences from day one, and you'll do paid work terms in hospitals, biotech companies, or medical device firms. This suits people who want to solve real health challenges through technology but aren't sure yet whether they prefer the engineering or health science side. | Engineering Science is a broad engineering program where you study math, physics, and engineering fundamentals before specializing in areas like aerospace, electrical, biotechnology, or general engineering. Unlike traditional engineering programs that lock you into one specialty from year one, this lets you explore multiple fields before choosing your focus. It suits students who are strong in math and science but unsure which engineering discipline fits them best, and who want optional paid work experience integrated into their degree. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
