Bachelor of Nursing
University of Notre Dame Australia, Fremantle, WA / Sydney, NSW, Australia
About this program
Leads to registration eligibility with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia, taught with a strong clinical placement structure across Fremantle-area hospitals and health services, and Sydney placements for that campus's cohort. The degree's Catholic institutional character shows up specifically in mandatory units on ethics and pastoral care within a health context, sitting alongside the standard clinical science curriculum required for any nursing accreditation.
Simulation-based learning happens on campus in dedicated clinical skills labs before students progress to live hospital and community placements, with placement blocks increasing in complexity and autonomy each year.
