Program Overview

Humber’s Bachelor of Science - Nursing program prepares students with the necessary knowledge and skill for an in-demand, rewarding career as a registered nurse (RN). Our graduates will lead and advocate for social justice while contributing to the delivery of innovative, safe, evidence-informed and ethical care to clients and communities across all health-care sectors on local, national and international levels. They will be 21st century global citizens. Our graduates are prepared to complete the nursing registration exam requirements as registered nurses in Ontario.


The comprehensive curriculum includes nursing theory and practicum experiences, as well as a biological sciences and liberal studies education throughout the program.


Humber is the only English-speaking college in Ontario with access to an on-campus cadaver lab for nursing students. Combine that with leading-edge simulation labs, bioscience and anatomy labs, and extensive practicum opportunities across several health-related agencies in the Greater Toronto Area - Humber students have the competitive edge.


Work-Integrated Learning  

During the program, students will participate in approximately 1,500 hours of unpaid professional-practicums beginning in Year 2 of the program, giving you valuable hands-on experience. These mandatory professional practicums provide students the opportunity to integrate nursing skills and knowledge in a supervised setting. Humber has ongoing relationships with many agencies, and, as a result, practicum experiences are diverse, covering a broad range of settings including for example, community agencies, schools, long-term care facilities and hospitals.


In the third semester of Year 2, practicums occur in rehabilitation, long-term and complex care settings. During Semester 3, students also learn and practise important nursing skills and health assessments in our simulation labs. The Semester 4 practicum takes place in maternal child and school health settings. During Year 3, students experience community, mental health and acute care practicum experiences. In Year 4, Semester 7, students' practicum is in acute care.   Each of the practicum placements in Semesters 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are supervised directly by one of Humber’s experts in clinical practicum education. Simulation activities at the college campus are also a component in Semesters 4, 5, 6, and 7. Semester 8, the final practicum can be in any type of health setting and students select areas that interest them. In Semester 8, students will complete a preceptored pre-graduate practicum. During this final practicum, students work one-on-one alongside a practising registered nurse in the setting.

Scholarships

International Entrance Scholarships - January and May 2025 intakes

$1,000 entrance scholarship for new international students already in Canada with a valid study permit for both the January and May 2025 intakes.


International Entrance Scholarships - 2024

New students starting their Diploma and/or Advanced Diploma studies are eligible for consideration for an international entrance scholarship at Humber. This scholarship offers a CAD 2,000 reduction in tuition fees during the first two semesters of study (CAD 1,000 per semester).


Further details of this scholarship are:

  1. Humber may consider high school students who have demonstrated academic excellence for the international entrance scholarship, but due to the limited number of scholarships available, only those with the highest GPA (Grade Point Average) will be awarded. Humber's admissions team will calculate the GPA based on the high school transcripts received during the admissions assessment process. No separate application is required for the International Entrance Scholarship, as the awards are automatically granted to eligible candidates after they commence their studies.
     
  2. A total of 20 scholarships will be awarded to new students starting in September, 15 scholarships will be awarded to new students starting in January, and 5 scholarships will be awarded to new students starting in May. Per every starting semester, each recipient must come from a different country. In other words, no more than one student from any single country may receive the award within the same starting semester.
     
  3. The award will be applied towards the student's MyHumber account as a credit after the 10th day of classes in two instalments of CAD 1,000. Both payments will be applied to the second semester. The scholarship recipient is still required to pay the full amount for the first semester.
     
  4. Only successful recipients will be notified after the Day 10 of their 1st-semester studies.
