Description:

York University's unique Master of Science in Nursing program was developed in response to changing attitudes towards the practice of nursing. With an innovative teaching approach that focuses on cultivating human relationships, it is perfectly positioned to respond to these challenges and will prepare you to be an influential voice in this important time of transition. York answers a growing demand for healthcare services and practitioners that focus on the experiences of human beings in a way that respects patients' values and choices about health and quality of life. This recognizes that every patient has a personal story.
