This one-year degree is designed for high-achieving students who have fulfilled the requirements of a Bachelor of Nursing and have achieved the required academic standards.
The honours program is designed to extend your knowledge and skills by allowing you to research a topic of interest. It provides supervision for a beginning researcher through individual mentoring and group seminars.
A major component of the degree is to guide you through the research process, including formulating testable questions from the research literature; devising appropriate methods to test these questions; obtaining ethics committee approval; data collection and analysis; oral presentation of results; and report writing. You will also develop and conduct a research project resulting in a thesis presentation.
See the course handbook for more information.
