Cape Breton University


The Cape Breton University Nursing Program strives for excellence in preparing our future nurses to be knowledgeable, competent, compassionate, and ethical professionals, prepared to provide leadership and scholarship in all areas of nursing practice.

Our small classes and experienced Faculty and Clinical Associates work together to foster a learner-centered environment that instils values of critical inquiry, reflective practice and life-long learning. Throughout our program we develop and advance nursing knowledge, while working proactively to advocate for and work toward eliminating social inequities.
