According to the College of Nurses of Ontario, baccalaureate preparation will mean that new nurses will be better prepared to join today's complex health care environment. Career opportunities in nursing are excellent. The Canadian Nurses Association estimates that there will be a major shortage of nurses for the next decade due to retirements of practising nurses, growth in health care demands, and declining nursing enrollment in the 1990s. The Ontario government is committed to 12,000 new nursing positions over the next three years. The Humber and UNB partnership provides an outstanding comprehensive and innovative program.
Clinical placement is offered in every year of study.
