Overview

Nursing: The course for you?

Do you love working with and for the benefit of people of all ages and from diverse backgrounds?

If you want a rewarding and respected career with great employment and travel opportunities, then the Nursing - General Nursing programme of Trinity College Dublin could be for you.

A genuine interest in people and a desire to care for others are core requirements for any individual who wishes to become a nurse.
