Bachelor of Nursing (Honours)
Become a leader in health, advancing the boundaries of human knowledge and developing specialised competence and expertise that can lead to outstanding career opportunities.
The Bachelor of Nursing (Honours) is a one-year program that teaches you how to plan and conduct research that addresses a specific scientific question.
You'll undertake coursework in small, supportive groups, which facilitate more in-depth class discussions, and collaborate closely with your fellow students and teachers as you work towards completing your all-important thesis.
It's possible that the thesis you write as an honours student will be publishable and make a significant contribution to the field, which means your research might establish your professional reputation and act as a gateway to future jobs possibilities.
Also, if you're currently working in health, the honours year in nursing is available part-time, so you can keep up with your personal or professional responsibilities.
Honours graduates have found employment in a range of different public and private healthcare services, maternity and neonatal care settings, teaching and research centres, rural and remote health clinics, and aid organisations.
Program highlights
- Learn how to plan and conduct research in this one-year program.
- Push the boundaries and develop skills in analysis, research, writing and problem-solving.
- Develop your research abilities through mentoring with researchers who'll share their experience.
