Responding to rapidly changing health care needs and providing relevant, contemporary education requires a solid and innovative research base. Our research strengths are Mother and Child Health; and Healthy Aging and Aged Care.

We have well developed programs and processes in place to support students and ensure their opportunities for success and a happy university experience are maximised.

The on-campus skills laboratories enable students to practice and develop clinical nursing skills in a simulated and supportive environment.
