The University of Alberta


The Faculty of Nursing at the University of Alberta is the largest nursing faculty in Canada. We have more doctorally-prepared faculty members than any other school in the west. We implemented the first graduate program in Nursing in Alberta in 1975 with our MN program, and in 1991 became the first Canadian nursing faculty to offer a fully-funded PhD program.

The University of Alberta Faculty of Nursing is the largest nursing education institution in Canada and is a recognized leader in teaching and research. Mirroring the University of Albertaâ??s goal, the Faculty of Nursingâ??s goal is to be one of the top 20 publicly-funded faculties of nursing in the world by 2020.
