Our mission is to provide society with human nursing resources with practical skills as experts in public health and social welfare.
The School of Nursing provides an educational environment to cope with society's demands for outstanding human resources, brought about Japan's low birth-rate and aging population, and increasingly high-tech and complex medical care. Our four-year curriculum includes both general and specialized subjects to broaden the students' education. Through these programs, we educate prospective nurses to be able to design a healthy life by themselves, and to make correct decisions from an ethical point of view, based on physical and mental functions. Our mission is to provide society with human nursing resources with practical skills as experts in public health and social welfare. |
