Bachelor of Nursing (Honours)

Graduates of the Bachelor of Nursing (Honours) will have:

an understanding of research principles and methods
a significant amount of knowledge in a particular area, which will allow them to undertake further study, research and/or other professional work
the ability to research, interpret and re-lay potentially complex theoretical principals
the technical skills to design and conduct a research project, with some level of independence
the skills to work collaboratively within an academic team of researchers as a junior member.

Completion of an Honours degree equips graduates with important skills in research, data analysis and interpretation, and project management. It is the most efficient pathway to doctoral studies. An Honours degree also provides graduates with greater knowledge of research and interpretation, which can be usefully applied in the clinical setting.

To be eligible to apply for admission to the course, a student must have completed a Bachelor of Nursing and attained a GPA of 5.75.
