Merge scientific expertise with practical nursing experience to develop into a versatile and highly competent nurse. You'll study Science and Social Science courses focused on healthcare while applying this knowledge in nursing practice. Clinical training occurs across diverse settings such as surgical, emergency, medical, mental health, and primary care services. Select from an extensive range of Science specializations, and benefit from our rigorous academic nursing program delivered by top researchers in cutting-edge facilities. While all nurses play vital roles in healthcare, those with scientific training have enhanced opportunities to advance into research, healthcare administration, and education. After registering with the Nursing Council of New Zealand, graduates can practice as nurses in primary, secondary, or tertiary healthcare environments; they'll become thoughtful nursing professionals who uphold principles of culturally safe care. Please note the University of Auckland doesn't facilitate graduate employment and cannot assure post-qualification registration or job opportunities in New Zealand or elsewhere.
