Overview

The Accelerated Standing Track (AST) Nursing Program gives students the opportunity to build on their previous university education to get a head start on their nursing career. This professional degree program qualifies graduates to apply to the regulatory body of the province which they plan to work in order to secure registration to practice with the title “Registered Nurse”. Two years in length including two summer terms (fall-winter-summer, fall-winter-summer). Hands-on program with practice nursing skills taught each year in the School of Nursing Simulation Lab and Glaxo Welcome Clinical Education Centre. Students complete clinical placements starting in the winter term of their first year. Students will have a placement in children’s health, maternity, mental health and with acute and chronic care adults. They will have clinical placements caring for patients of all ages and stages in life in areas such as hospitals, public health, clinics and community agencies. Support is provided for student success: a full-time academic advisor is available throughout the student's program along with numerous Queen’s services such as Student Wellness Services, Student Academic Success Center, Student Affairs and Peer Support. Smaller class sizes mean that students will get to know the faculty well over the course of their time in the program. Students may tailor their program by applying for research assistant or simulation lab assistant positions, choosing to take the Certificate in Business, Certificate in Law, Arts and Science certificates, or by completing a dual degree in Arts and Sciences. Queen’s nurses work all over the world in many settings, including hospitals, community organizations, and in research, education and government. The program prepares students for graduate studies in the future.
