Program Description

Arctic Nursing, developed collaboratively by Nunavut Arctic College and Dalhousie University, is a 4-year degree program that focuses on nursing in Nunavut. Arctic Nursing is designed to prepare graduates for a career as entry-level practitioners in a variety of health care settings including hospitals, long-term care facilities, and community-based agencies.

The curriculum emphasizes primary health care, awareness, and respect of the Inuit culture and prepares nurses to be leaders in the health care system in Nunavut and throughout Canada. Although the degree is conferred by Dalhousie University, the curriculum was designed to reflect the diversity and culture of Nunavut including the current Canadian standards of university nursing education.

Graduates of this program will gain the necessary knowledge, judgment, and skills to write the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN). On passing the NCLEX-RN, graduates will be eligible to apply for registration in any provincial or territorial Registered Nursing Association in Canada.
