50 Years of Nursing
Leading the Pursuit of Nursing Excellence. Yesterday, today, tomorrow
In July of 1969, the School of Nursing joined the University of Calgary and began preparations to accept its first intake of students in September 1970. In the ensuing 50 years, the school became a faculty, broadened its scope from undergraduate to include graduate students and built a research capacity that rivals the other top Canadian nursing schools.
Join us as we celebrate 50 years of nursing education in Alberta!
