Graduate School of Nursing
Starting in April 2025, we have newly established a Doctoral Course. We cultivate leaders who can guide and drive nursing practice, working alongside our students to address healthcare challenges and promote well-being in Toyama Prefecture.
The Master's Course offers two courses: the Research Course and the Certified Nurse Specialist Course.
- In the Research Course, students select one of five concentrations-“Fundamental Nursing,” “Adult Nursing,” “Gerontological and Psychiatric Nursing,” “Maternal Child Nursing,” or “Community and Home Health Nursing” to conduct research.
- Upon completion of the course, students will be qualified to take the examination for certification as a "Gerontological Certified Nurse Specialist" who can work as a specialist in the field of gerontological nursing according to the practical experience of care for the older adults.
In the Doctoral Course, students deepen the expertise and knowledge cultivated in the master's Course and engage in education and research for interdisciplinary nursing practice necessary to solve healthcare and welfare challenges in communities and society.
