Department of Nursing Science
The Faculty of Nursing Science turns out nurses and public health nurses capable of solving a diverse range of healthcare issues. Students acquire the knowledge and skills nurses need and the human qualities that will make them trusted by patients and their families. They hone their powers of execution through practicums at the university’s partner institutes, in the process growing into individuals capable of dealing with community residents’ health issues and contributing to longer and healthier lifespans.

- In addition to specialized nursing knowledge, students gain a well-rounded education, an ethical viewpoint, and communication skills.
