Notes:
1 It is recommended that 049.343
be taken in the first 12 credit hours of the program. Students
who have credit for the former 049.319 may substitute this
course for 049.343.
2 Students may select either 049.322
or 049.336
as their core community clinical course.
3 The community health courses are designed to
complement each other: 049.322
complements 049.416;
049.336
complements 049.430.
Students choose either 049.416 or 049.430.
4 Nursing electives may be used to customize
a student's program. Electives may be used to expand on a
number of different areas of nursing or may be used to focus
on a particular area of nursing practice.
5 Of the 9 credit hours of non-Nursing electives,
no more than 6 credit hours may be at the 100 (introductory)
level. Students who graduated from Health Sciences Centre
after 1981, or took N311 Microbiology at Red River College
after 1989, should contact the BPRN student advisor if they
are considering registering for 060.122
Essentials of Microbiology as a non-Nursing elective. Students
who completed Anatomy and Physiology at a university level
(equivalent to 022.132
and 022.133)
in their diploma program should not take any further introductory-level
anatomy and physiology courses as their non-Nursing electives.
See Courses Which May be Used as Non-Nursing Electives in the BPRN for suggestions regarding Non-Nursing Electives for the BPRN. |
