The University of Northern British Columbia


At the University of Northern British Columbia School of Nursing we are actively engaged in preparing excellent nurses who are ready to meet the complex care needs of individuals in regional, rural and remote communities of the North. We strive to foster a deep commitment to the nursing profession and embrace change as a means for influencing health care at all levels. Finally, we strive to produce graduates who inform knowledge and practice by utilizing an evidence-informed approach to nursing.

We offer innovative and practice-based programs of study at the undergraduate level including our Northern Collaborative Baccalaureate Nursing Program (NCBNP) in partnership with the College of New Caledonia and Northwest Community College, a Post-Diploma program, and a provincial practice-driven Rural Nursing Certificate Program (RNCP). At the graduate level we provide several options for individuals wishing to pursue a Master of Science in Nursing degree (MScN-FNP; MScN-Professional/Academic). Finally, UNBC is currently developing a collaborative, inter-professional doctoral program in Health Sciences which will provide our students with the opportunity to pursue doctoral level study in the future.
