“Nursing at the University of Melbourne focuses a great deal on human science and physiology, which is really helpful in understanding illnesses and diseases in patients. I like the fact that the lectures are conducted by professional nurses and doctors who have specialized experience in the field and I’m looking forward to my final year when I will have the option to specialisw in pediatrics.”
