Students first have an intensive 10-month qualifying year of study. Clinical courses include nursing patients and families in hospitals and rehabilitation settings. Following successful completion of the qualifying year, students must apply to continue their studies in either the MSc(A) Nursing Direct Entry to Advanced Practice Nursing or the MSc(A)-N- Global Health Direct Entry (see Global Health Concentration for more information).
