Merge scientific expertise with practical nursing experience to develop into a versatile and highly competent nurse. You'll study Science and Social Science subjects focused on healthcare while applying them in nursing practice. Clinical training occurs across diverse environments such as surgical, emergency, medical, mental health, and primary care services. Select from an extensive range of Science specializations, with our rigorous academic and clinical nursing program delivered by top researchers in cutting-edge facilities. While all nurses are vital to healthcare systems, those with scientific training gain enhanced career opportunities in research, health administration, and education. After registering with the Nursing Council of New Zealand, graduates can practice in primary, secondary, or tertiary healthcare settings as culturally aware, reflective nursing professionals. Please note the University of Auckland doesn't oversee graduate employment and cannot ensure post-qualification registration or job placement in New Zealand or elsewhere.
