Welcome to the School of Nursing

The Dean and Faculty of the School of Nursing at Thompson Rivers University (TRU), welcome you.

The School offers a variety of health care career options: Health Care Assistant Certificate program, Licensed Practical Nurse program and the Bachelor of Science  in Nursing Program. In addition we offer programs through Open Leanrning - Return to Nursing Practice . Some of our programs accept international students and have designated seats for students of Aboriginal ancestry. The Bachelor of Science in Nursing program offers students an opportunity for an international experience.

We look forward to getting to know you as you study and practice nursing at TRU. The School of Nursing is here to support your goal of becoming a health care professional. The opportunities available to provide care to individuals in their home or in a health care institution are extraordinary and the TRU program will provide the foundation for a successful dynamic career. Coming to know students, nurses and the people you will learn and be entrusted to care for throughout the program are an integral part of the curriculum and learning experience. Take this oppotunity to be adventurous: explore diversity, appreciate difference, and expect the unexpected.
