The UBC School of Nursing offers an innovative and advanced program designed to prepare leaders in nursing practice. As a nursing student, you’ll be exposed to the latest technology, encouraged by leading academic scholars and teachers, and provided with a broad range of resources.

Through classroom study and clinical practice in acute care and community settings, you will graduate highly prepared to practise as a registered nurse in an ever changing health care environment. You’ll learn from faculty members who are continually recognized for ground-breaking and dedicated work to these substantive areas of nursing including primary health as well as theoretical and relational practice, research, leadership, policy and ethics.

To be considered for admission, applicants must have a completed bachelor’s degree or significant progress (minimum of 48 non-nursing university transferable credits) toward a degree in another field of study, including first-year English (3 credits), and Human Anatomy and Physiology (6 credits). The School of Nursing accepts applications from international students who meet the admission criteria; however, Canadian citizens and permanent residents are given preference in the final selection process.

UBC Film is a wild ride. You don’t just talk about movies here, you make them, usually on no sleep and way too much coffee - that's for me anyway. It’s competitive to get in, and honestly, it stays competitive once you’re there. But that pressure forces you to grow and learn fast. By second year, our class felt more like a production crew than a random group of students.

The professors are a mix: some hardcore industry people, some full-on art film types, which makes for great discussion and projects. The equipment and facilities are good if you treat them right, and the tech staff are the real mvps when something breaks five minutes before your shoot.

This isn’t a program that hands you a career on a silver platter. It’s about learning how to tell stories that actually mean something, and then figuring out how to pull them off. You’ll freeze on outdoor shoots, lose files, rebuild sets with duct tape, and somehow still make something you’re proud of.

If you love film enough to put up with all that you’ll come out the other side with serious skills and a few stories of your own. This was an amazing program.

As a student in UBC’s Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program, I found the experience to be intellectually stimulating and professionally oriented. The curriculum places a strong emphasis on health equity, Indigenous cultural safety, anti-racism and inclusive practice, which I found meaningful and timely for the healthcare environment. The clinical placements start early and offer exposure to a variety of settings, allowing me to apply theory and build practical skills in real-world healthcare teams. I also appreciated the research opportunities and multidisciplinary collaborations embedded in the program.
