Overview

Bachelor of Nursing Science (Pre-Registration)

With this professionally-accredited degree, I learned how to assess clients, communicate with people from diverse cultural backgrounds, plan and implement nursing interventions, and manage and evaluate nursing care. 

Benefit from extensive supervised professional practice and clinical experience in real-world settings from year one.

This three-year, full-time course at James Cook University focuses on nursing in a northern tropical context. 

It will prepare you for work as an RN in multiple settings, from large metropolitan hospitals to rural and isolated practice clinics.

Benefit from JCU's reputation as the Centre for Nursing and Midwifery Research and the World Health Organisation's Collaborating Centre for Nursing and Midwifery Education and Research Capacity Building.
