Your future with a degree in Nursing

Anyone who is training to become a nursing specialist can do a bachelor's degree in this practically accompanied degree, which enables them to work in all areas of nursing. The course provides insight into different areas of care in Schleswig-Holstein and thus directly shows professional action in different contexts. The career prospects after graduation are very good, as there is a shortage of skilled workers in all nursing professions. Individual priorities can be set by choosing a specialisation.
