BA/BS in Baccalauréat en sciences infirmières - Formation initiale - Campus Laval

The Baccalaureat en sciences infirmieres - Formation initiale is a three-year, 105-credit undergraduate program delivered at Universite de Montreal's Laval campus that prepares students for professional practice as a registered nurse in Quebec. Teaching follows a small-group, active-learning model built around real clinical situations, combining classroom study of human health across the lifespan with supervised clinical placements beginning in the first trimester. Students build competencies in evidence-based care across varied populations and practice settings, with exposure to critical care, mental health, pediatric, and community health nursing. Proof of vaccination and a criminal background check are required before clinical placements, and registration with Quebec's nursing order is required before internships begin. The program is delivered full-time, in-person, in daytime courses with some evening clinical activities. Admission is limited-enrollment and competitive, drawing from CEGEP, university, and out-of-province or international applicant pools.
