Course Information

Upgrade your current Enrolled Nurse qualification with our two-year Enrolled Nurse Entry degree. You'll graduate ready to register with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) as a Registered Nurse.

Your hands-on experience begins at our on-campus clinical simulation centres and extends to supervised experience in hospitals and healthcare agencies. Alongside this clinical experience, you'll study transition to a Registered Nurse, acute nursing care and nursing research. These subjects enable you to support patients and lead care across the life span. You'll also take more specialised subjects like Mental Health Nursing, Recognising and Responding to the Deteriorating Patient and Nursing People with Chronic Illnesses.

Senior metropolitan students will undertake study at one of our clinical schools in leading Victorian hospitals like:

  • The Alfred

  • The Austin

  • Royal Melbourne

  • and The Northern.

La Trobe Regional School and Chisholm students will undertake their studies at a local site.

The final subjects in the curriculum aim to support your transition to Registered Nurse by promoting consolidation and reflection on your clinical practice and engagement in professional nursing. These subjects assist you manage time, lead teams, manage caseloads and make ethical clinical decisions with a compassionate and caring approach.

You may be eligible for a La Trobe scholarship or a scholarship from the Australian College of Nursing. Our student exchange program may also offer overseas study opportunities with one of our partner universities around the world. Part time study options are only available via consultation with the course coordinator and the development of an Agreed Progression Plan.

Advanced standing credits will be given to applicants with nursing experience or Advanced Diploma of Nursing. You need a current Enrolled Nurse Registration with AHPRA to be eligible for this course. If your initial nursing registration occurred before 2008, you'll need to complete a bridging course in human physiology and anatomy before starting this degree.

This degree provides a clear career pathway to hospital positions as a Registered Nurse - but it can also lead to positions in primary care, aged care, hospices and schools, as well as administrative positions in government, aid organisations, healthcare centres and clinics.
