The Advanced Leadership Track offered under the existing Bachelor of Nursing programme [BNurs-ALT] is designed for high achievers, who aspire to pursue an advanced and specialised nurse practice or a nurse-physician career in the healthcare sector, to accomplish the professional curricula at an accelerated pace.

Highlights:

In addition to the 5-year BNurs curriculum, students will have the opportunity to articulate to HKU Master of Nursing (MNurs)^* or HKU Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS)^*: 

• Articulation to HKU Master of Nursing (MNurs)^#
  Students shall be admitted to the 1-year part-time MNurs study, upon successful completion of the 5-year BNurs programme, and shall be able to complete one Bachelor’s Degree and one Master’s Degree in Nursing in 6 years upon satisfactory completion of curricula concerned.
   
• Articulation to HKU Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS)^*
  Students shall be admitted directly to MBBS Year 2 and exempted from the Year 3 enrichment year requirement, upon successful completion of the 5-year BNurs programme with first class honours^*, and shall be able to complete 2 professional degrees in 9 years, upon satisfactory completion of curricula concerned.
  
  A Leadership Development Programme, which is specifically designed for BNurs-ALT students, offers opportunities for them to acquire professional development skills for advanced performance and to cultivate leadership skillsets via experiential learning experience. Students will also be assigned a designated professoriate staff and an experienced nurse leader as personal mentors, who provide advice and guidance throughout the BNurs-ALT study. Students can learn from the great minds, expand their personal networks and widen their horizon.
