Is it possible to study nursing?

The classic degree programs in nursing are:

Care management

Nursing/vocational education

Nursing science

The law provides for an undergraduate degree course in nursing, in which students are awarded an academic degree as well as a license to use the professional title. In NRW, the University of Applied Sciences for Health in Bochum offers this course.

Many theoretical training centers also cooperate with universities and offer dual study programs. Here you can start studying during your apprenticeship.

Is the training also recognized abroad?

Thanks to an agreement, training as a nursing specialist is recognized in all countries of the European Union. You can even set up as a freelance nurse in any country.
