Master of Nursing

The focus of the Master of Nursing is to provide the necessary skills for Registered Nurses to meet their professional goals in a clinical or research setting. This includes studying cultural and social diversity in health care, evidence based health care, and leadership in clinical practice. Our students are provided the option to choose a major in either clinical leadership, clinical teaching or tuberculosis management, preparing you for career progression in your chosen field. Opportunities are provided for students in their final sessions of study to apply these advanced nursing concepts learnt through a specific project or research experience relevant to your professional goals. This program can be completed through either full time or part time study, allowing you the flexibility to integrate it into your current workplace requirements. The aim of the Master of Nursing is to provide Registered Nurses with the theoretical knowledge and critical thinking skills to prepare them for advanced practice in the clinical setting. The course can be tailored so you can align your career goals with one of a number of professional pathways. The program is normally completed in 1.5 years full-time and 3 years part-time.
