The collaborative nursing programs are a fully integrated partnership between the Durham College School of Health & Community Services and the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) Faculty of Health Sciences, Nursing. This program will prepare students to meet the health-care needs of individuals, families, groups, communities and populations. Students are prepared to create and disseminate knowledge about nursing practice and the human experience of health, illness and healing. Graduates are prepared to write the NCLEX-RN examination to become a registered nurse.
