The Department of Nursing is dedicated towards advancing the health and well-being of society, to the highest attainable standards.
Building on our history, we strive to cultivate nursing knowledge essential for the development of competent clinicians and the well-being of the Maltese population, as a small island nation and an integral member of the international nursing community. We view education as a social and moral responsibility, addressing real-world challenges.
The Department seeks to deliver high quality education through a dynamic learning
environment. We promote a culture of critical thinking and constructive inquiry. We believe that participatory experiences, collaborative and student-centered approaches enable students to become proactive contributors to their own education. We are committed to continued professional growth that supports nurses in adapting to evolving healthcare needs.
Aligned with UM’s values, the department of nursing is guided by adherence to accountability,
open-mindedness, empathy and integrity. These values guide our actions and
through education contribute to meaningful societal well-being.
In embracing these principles the Department of Nursing is committed to providing an educational journey that prepares individuals not only for a successful career but also for a lifetime of responsible citizenship, leadership, innovation and high-quality evidence informed healthcare.
