Program Summary
Nursing science is a field of study that focuses on the principles, practices, and methodologies necessary to provide effective healthcare to individuals and communities. It encompasses the biological, social, and psychological sciences, integrating them to promote health, prevent illness, and manage disease. Nursing science involves both theoretical and practical components, where students learn to assess, plan, implement, and evaluate care for patients across various healthcare settings. It also includes understanding health policies, leadership in healthcare, and research methods to contribute to evidence-based practice. Nurses are trained to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, as well as the ability to communicate effectively with patients, families, and healthcare teams. The ultimate goal of nursing science is to improve patient outcomes and enhance the quality of care delivered.
