The Bachelor of Nursing is designed for individuals interested in becoming a registered nurse. 

Registered nurses play an important role in the healthcare system and are involved in a range of activities that are designed to provide care and support to people with acute, chronic and complex health conditions. Registered nurses are integral in the treatment of individuals, families, communities and whole populations. 

While studying nursing at UOW, you will develop an increased understanding of how social, cultural, economic, legal, political and ethical forces impact the nursing profession and health care. There will also be plenty of opportunities to apply theory to practice during 21 weeks of professional workplace experience undertaken in hospitals, aged care and community facilities. You will be immersed in all elements of nursing throughout your studies to ensure you are ready for your transition to practice.
