Bachelor of Science (Nursing Studies)

This is an international course allowing registered nurses from outside of Australia an opportunity to obtain an Australian degree if they hold a diploma level qualification in their country of origin. The course is not professionally-accredited and therefore does not lead to registration with the Nurses and Midwives Board of Australia.
