Welcome to the Faculty of Nursing

Shaping the Future of Nursing for Over 50 Years

For more than half a century, the Faculty of Nursing at Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUNFON) has built a strong reputation for excellence—across Newfoundland and Labrador, throughout Canada, and around the world.

We offer a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) (Collaborative) Program, available in both a traditional 4-year option and an accelerated 3-year option.

At the graduate level, we offer a range of programs designed to support professional growth and leadership:

  • Master of Science in Nursing (MScN), with a practicum or Nurse Practitioner (NP) option

  • Post-master’s Nurse Practitioner Graduate Diploma

  • Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Nursing

Nursing is one of the most rewarding and dynamic professions in health care. Nurses are essential to promoting health, preventing illness, and supporting individuals, families, and communities across diverse care settings. At MUNFON, we are proud to educate and inspire the next generation of nurses and nurse leaders.
