Master of Science in Advancing Nursing Science

Designed for qualified nurses, this Master of Science guides students through an advanced study journey in a chosen speciality area: older-person care, oncology nursing, mental health nursing, or critical care nursing. Students select their pathway at the outset and orient their study, research, reading and assessment around that chosen speciality throughout the programme. The advanced knowledge and skills gained in the chosen speciality are intended to support students' role and career development as future nurse leaders navigating the complex, multidisciplinary landscape of modern healthcare. Students who prefer a broader focus rather than specialising can instead follow a generic pathway through the degree. Either route leads to the same Master of Science in Advancing Nursing Science, giving graduates a route to deepen their clinical expertise while building the leadership capacity the profession increasingly demands.
