About the course
This cross-institutional, non-award postgraduate nursing study option allows students enrolled at another Australian university to complete eligible University of Sydney nursing units and potentially have them credited towards their home degree. Unit availability varies by year and session, and enrolment requires meeting unit prerequisites and faculty approval. It is designed for flexible, unit-by-unit postgraduate nursing study rather than a full award program. The programme develops advanced clinical reasoning, health leadership, and evidence-based practice for complex care environments.
