Applications for concurrent Bachelor of Nursing/Master of Nursing program open until March 13th.

Brock Univeristy is now accepting applications for its new innovative nursing program. 

The concurrent Bachelor of Nursing and Master of Nursing will allow students to get both degrees within a five year curriculum. 

The University says the program is the only one of its kind in the country, and includes both a hands on and theoretical approach. 

"We are very excited to finally see this program come to life," says Dawn Prentice, Graduate Program Director and Professor. "It’s been many years in the making and a journey that began with the program’s proposal in 2017 with Dr. Joyce Engel, former Chair and Associate Professor of Nursing."

Students will have the opportunity to gain skills in five areas, including knowledge-based practice and self-regulation. 

Applications will be accepted until Sunday, March 13th. 

Prospective students can also register for an information session taking place Tuesday, March 1 at noon.
