Required time limits
Students have a maximum of 6 years to complete this program.
Endorsed Enrolled nurses and International Registered Nurses with 8 credit point exemptions have a maximum
of 4 years to complete this program.
Clinical requirements
Clinical experience is an integral component of the program and each student is required to undertake and
satisfactorily complete 840 hours of clinical experience. Students will be required to attend clinical experience
in the Toowoomba Health District and surrounding areas (Toowoomba Campus students) and the Fraser Coast
Health District and surrounding areas (Fraser Coast Campus students). Students also need to be aware that
clinical placement can sometimes be in rural and remote settings away from their home campus.
Clinical courses will incur some additional expenses for students including uniform and equipment; CPR
updates, Hepatitis B immunization, Police Checks, transport to and from venues and in some instances living
expenses. Some clinical placement occurs in block placements (2 - 4 weeks full time attendance) which
requires student flexibility with commitments such as employment outside of the University. Clinical placements
also occur within the local area within an allocated 2 day per week program (completed over a 10 week period
of time).
Clinical practice will require shift work including working on weekends, holidays and all three shifts (day,
evening and through the night). Students are required to follow the schedule that the clinical venue has assigned
to the placement and this may require adjusting private work and other commitments.

Clinical courses are not available for general enrolment in Semester 3. Please note there will be periods of
full-time attendance required in these options, such as in clinical courses. Students are required to complete
