About the course

The UTS Bachelor of Nursing course prepares students for the exciting and challenging role of the Registered Nurse. This course is comprised of a comprehensive range of theoretical and clinical nursing subjects that together provide the knowledge, skills and professional values graduates require to provide safe, effective and compassionate nursing care. Our graduates are well prepared for clinical practice and are highly sought after for employment in a wide range of healthcare settings across Australian and internationally.

　　The Bachelor of Nursing course is a three year full-time (or equivalent part-time) course consisting of both theoretical and practical components. Clinical learning is a key element of the course and clinical placements in health care settings begin in the Spring session of first year and continue every session thereafter. Simulation-based learning opportunities are integral to the course and designed to assist students in preparing for clinical placements and their future role as a registered nurse. In their final year of study students can choose a clinical specialty elective, for example paediatrics, critical care, peri operative, palliative care or drug and alcohol nursing.

　　Career options for registered nurses include diverse specialty clinical areas such as community health, critical care, general practice, aged care, mental health, operating theatres and paediatrics. Career progression opportunities include working as a clinical nurse consultant, clinical nurse specialist, nurse educator, nurse manager, nurse practitioner or rural and remote practice nurse and nurse academic and researcher (clinical and non-clinical). Note: postgraduate study is required for some of these career paths. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
