This program holds accreditation from the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (previously known as the Nurses Board of Victoria). The MNSc delivers advanced academic training with superior educational results, while fulfilling the competency standards set by the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Council for registered nurse certification.
