Welcome to the Department of Nursing
at Lund University
|
The Department is characterised by a dynamic environment, a committed teaching staff, research of great importance and a qualified support structure in the form of a library, a specialised staff for information and communication technology and other technical and administrative support.
Our activity is divided into three parts: teaching, research and postgraduate studies, along with the so-called third assignment, contact with society at large. The teaching takes place within our different undergraduate programmes. |
 |
Research and postgraduate studies mostly concern research focused on nursing.
Our ambition is that the teachers should have high competence, clinical as well as theoretical, and that the education should operate in close collaboration with healthcare and research.
It is important for us that the education should be governed by the students’ requirements and that the activities are run in accordance with the students’ charter of rights, http://www.lu.se/stu/studinfo/studentrattigheter.htm (in Swedish)
Our programmes are among the most popular in Sweden. There are many applicants and highly motivated students, which is very stimulating for those who work here.
Within the faculty there are several undergraduate programmes within the healthcare area, and it is our ambition to have as much cooperation as possible between these programmes. This will prepare our students for teamwork.
Care should be carried out according to science and proven experience, which requires active research and close cooperation between research and education at the undergraduate level. Our ambition is that there should be ongoing research within areas where healthcare needs are large and where ill-health means great strains for both the patients and their families. We provide postgraduate studies in nursing. Doctoral students work with clinical projects. During their education they take part in international courses, seminars and conferences.
Feel welcome to contact us personally or via our website.
