Collaborative learning activities are combined with traditional methods to prepare students for life-long learning, research, teamwork, and leadership skills essential for nursing practice. Students have access to state-of-the-art technically enhanced laboratories and facilities, including a new clinical skills laboratory and a 30-bed, simulated hospital. Over fifty employers from the health sector provide practicum experience and supervision.Students graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (Honours).
