Educating Compassionate, Evidence-Based Nursing Professionals
The Department of Medical Sciences – Nursing at Manhattan International University prepares students for rewarding careers as registered nurses capable of delivering high-quality, person-centered care across diverse settings. Our programs integrate rigorous scientific knowledge with clinical skills development and the cultivation of professional values. We develop nurses who can provide competent, compassionate care while advocating for patients, leading teams, and contributing to healthcare improvement in an evolving health landscape.

The curriculum covers nursing fundamentals, anatomy and physiology, pharmacology, pathophysiology, and nursing care across the lifespan and health continuum. Students learn clinical skills in simulation laboratories before progressing to supervised practice in various healthcare settings—hospitals, community clinics, mental health services, and primary care. The program emphasizes evidence-based practice, clinical decision-making, communication and collaboration, and the ethical dimensions of nursing care. Special attention is given to public health, health promotion, and managing complex care needs.

Clinical placements form approximately 50% of the program, providing diverse experiences across medical-surgical, pediatric, maternity, mental health, and community nursing. Our partnerships with NHS trusts and other healthcare providers ensure comprehensive clinical education. Upon successful completion, graduates are eligible to apply for registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and pursue careers as staff nurses, community nurses, specialist nurses, and future nursing leaders in the UK’s healthcare system.
