The Master of Nursing (MNurs) Programme aims to prepare registered nurses for advanced and specialised nursing practice. We provide a broad-spectrum of clinical, community and management study tracks enabling students to develop their specialty areas.  Our curriculum benchmarks with the international standard adopted by top university nursing schools in order to align with the ever-increasing professional educational need for nursing specialisation locally and globally.
