MSc(A) – Nursing Direct-Entry program requirements
The Direct-Entry program is a three-year program of study consisting of a qualifying year and two years of study at the master’s level. The following table maps the course of study that is clinically oriented and directed toward Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) preparation in family health. The total program weight is 96 credits.
Courses with numbers ending D1 and D2 are taught in two consecutive terms (most commonly Fall and Winter). Students register for the D1 (Fall) and the system automatically registers students for the D2 (Winter) component. No credit will be given unless both components (D1 and D2) are successfully completed in consecutive terms.
* Students who have already completed Physiology, Pharmacology, and Pathology within their undergraduate studies will be selecting up to 12 credits of complementary courses in consultation with an academic advisor during the August registration advising session.
