Introduction
The Bachelor’s Programme in Nursing is a three-year programme of professional study (180 credits). Students who complete the programme are awarded a bachelor’s degree in Nursing (Bachelor of Nursing). The bachelor’s degree forms the basis for authorisation as a general nurse in accordance with the Act relating to Health Personnel.
The aim of nursing is to promote health, prevent, treat and help patients to cope with disease, and to ease suffering. Nursing is based on humanistic values and is both a field of knowledge and a profession. Nursing includes knowledge of physical, psychological, social and existential aspects of the human being. OsloMet has Norway's biggest research environment in nursing. Research on the patients’ experiences and reactions to disease and suffering is a main focus, along with measures to support the patients to lead a healthy life and cope with disease. Patient safety is a key area of the programme. Microbiology and infection control are prioritised areas to meet the challenges in connection with antibiotic resistance and increased incidence of contagious diseases.
The nursing programme's knowledge base comprises nursing science, natural science, social sciences and the humanities. The programme is based on a holistic view of human beings with humanistic values. The requirement of the individual practitioner after graduating is to act professionally and ethically responsibly. Throughout the course of study, the students will gain experience with patients in the specialist health service, in municipalities and city districts. OsloMet cooperates with the country's most competent treatment environments and our main cooperation partners are Oslo University Hospital, Akershus University Hospital, the City of Oslo and the municipalities of Romerrike.
Nurses encounter people of all ages, with different conditions, injuries and functional ability. In big cities and in the surrounding areas, the population consists of people from multiple ethnic origins and cultural backgrounds. During the study programme, the students will encounter this diversity and learn to provide healthcare in accordance with the patient’s cultural and linguistic background. The nursing profession consists of nursing and medical procedures, care and empathy, health counselling and information work, as well as facilitation in a health promoting environment. Nurses work with individuals and groups and at the intersectoral system level.
Person-centered nursing is practised via knowledge-based processes involving reasoning, which include mapping, assessment, decision-making and evaluation. The professional group contributes to interprofessional cooperation and has part of the responsibility for ensuring that habilitation and rehabilitation processes maintain the user’s need for coordinated and cohesive services.
The programme description for the study is based on the national regulations relating to a common curriculum for health and social care education adopted by the Ministry of Education and Research, and the regulations relating to the national guidelines for nursing education adopted by the Ministry of Education and Research on the basis of the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges and the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University.
Relevance to working life
The bachelor’s degree in nursing qualifies students for work in all parts of the health services: hospitals, health centres, nursing homes, home nursing services, preventive health work, the occupational health service, offshore, the ambulance service and international aid organisations. The programme is also relevant for positions in the business sector.
Relevance to further studies
The bachelor’s programme qualifies students to take master’s degree programmes.
Target group
The target group is students with a bachelor’s degree in health or social care who want to work on professional development and/or participate in research in their field, and potentially conduct clinical work in their chosen specialisation. The programme is a relevant additional education to a number of health and social care programmes.
Admission requirements
Admission takes place directly to the chosen specialisation. The requirement for admission to the Master’s Degree Programme in Health Sciences is a bachelor's degree or an equivalent degree within a specified field, with an average grade of at least C. However, an average grade of C does not guarantee admission. If the number of qualified applicants exceeds the number of places on the programme, the applicants will be ranked according to the applicable ranking rules.
Reference is made to the Regulations relating to Admission to Studies at OsloMet. The specialisations will only be run if a sufficient number of qualified candidates apply.
Admission requirements for the Specialisation in Cancer Nursing
A bachelor's degree or an equivalent degree in nursing and Norwegian authorisation as a general nurse.
Applicants who accept an offer for a place on the programme must submit a transcript of police records.

Content and structure
The programme has a comprehensive profile where academic content, pedagogical activities and practical studies are interconnected. The connection between the learning outcome descriptions, learning activities and forms of assessment are particularly emphasised. Work and teaching methods and the fields of study covered in the programme are organised in a way that promotes both theoretical understanding and practical action competence. The courses build on each other to ensure progress with increasing requirements for knowledge and understanding of the profession. Through critical reflection, ethical competence and professional judgement are gradually developed.
For all nursing programmes, four recurring topics are defined: ethics, patient safety, communication and cooperation and management. The topics are integrated into different courses and described with separate learning outcomes to ensure coherency, connection and progression between courses and academic years. Diversity and big-city health are also emphasised as key perspectives in all three years of the programme.
Each academic year comprises 60 credits, and the expected workload is normally 40 hours per week. This applies both for theoretical courses and during practical training. All the courses conclude with a final assessment.
Learning in groups is particularly emphasised in the study programme. The most important elements to ensure good group processes are safety, well-being and a sense of belonging. We therefore want all students to feel a sense of belonging to their class throughout the programme. This class will be divided into smaller groups that comprise study groups.
First year of the programme
During the first year, students will receive a basic introduction to nursing as a discipline, profession and science. Natural science courses make up an important part of the first year of study. This will provide a good basis for studying nursing observation and assessment.
Diversity and the lifetime perspective are also recurring topics. The students will receive in-depth knowledge of the human being’s fundamental needs and resources.
The academic year starts with an introductory period where the students get to know their rights and duties. Study groups are established as a work method and expectations of the students' own and other people’s efforts are clarified. Through practical training in the spring semester, the students gain experience of how needs and resources change as a result of ageing and disease. The year concludes with a theoretical introduction to different diseases, which provides a good basis for the second academic year.
Second year of the programme
The second year of the programme focuses particularly on nursing of people with acute and critical diseases of different ages. Students will also meet patients with progressive and chronic diseases. In addition to theory, students take two long practical training periods where they study nursing of patients and next-of-kin in authentic patient situations in the health services, which can be in either specialist healthcare services or municipal healthcare services. You will be covering both medical and surgical nursing. You will be covering both medical and surgical nursing. In the spring semester, students will also gain insight into health and social perspectives, management, and organisation, in addition to health promoting and preventive health work, that prepares you for the 3rd year of study.
The spring semester is specially adapted for internationalisation at home, as some of the courses are taught in English. In this semester, we also welcome inbound exchange students.
Third year of the programme
In the third year of the programme, the students will study nursing of people with complex health challenges. A significant part of the programme takes place in the practical training field, mainly in different arenas of the municipal health service. The practical training field consists of patients and next-of-kin with different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. The courses look at mental health issues and complex health conditions. Management, professional development and interdisciplinary and intersectoral cooperation are key aspects. The bachelor’s thesis is an academic in-depth assignment to be written in the last semester.
Interdisciplinary Teaching programmes taught jointly with other programmes at OsloMet
INTERACT (Interprofessional Interaction with Children and Youths - INTER1100, INTER1200 and INTER1300) is an interdisciplinary teaching programme at OsloMet, where students from both the health and social care subjects and the teacher/kindergarten teacher education programmes meet in interdisciplinary groups. The aim is to ensure that the students acquire the skills needed to meet society’s demands for a better coordination of services that affect children and young people. The teaching activity builds on pedagogical principles of interactivity and spiral learning, with extensive use of digital learning and assessment tools to improve the learning outcomes. The teaching (INTER1100, INTER1200 and INTER1300) is carried out in the first teaching week each spring semester for students in the first, second and third study year. See https://www.oslomet.no/forskning/forskningsprosjekter/interact for a more detailed description of INTERACT.
Student BEST (Better and systematic team training - SYKK/SYKP3000) is a teaching programme in simulation with a focus on interprofessional interaction in acute situations. The aim is better and systematic team training and involves several other professional training courses. Simulation in teams is used as a training method in receiving and stabilising trauma. The focus is communication and interaction in an interprofessional group. The teaching program is carried out during the third year of study.
Requirements for participation in interdisciplinary teaching programmes
There is a requirement for participation in the interprofessional teaching programme INTERACT (INTER1100 which is carried out in connection with SYKKPRA10/SYKPPRA10, INTER1200, and INTER1300) and Student BEST (SYKK3000/SYKP3000), which must be approved to be awarded a diploma.
Progression requirements in the study
Progression requirements are highlighted under prior knowledge requirements in the individual courses.

Teaching and learning methods
OsloMet focuses on having a good and developing learning environment that students can thrive in. The work and teaching methods have been developed on the basis of a socio-cultural view of learning, where the overriding principle is to make use of your own thoughts, knowledge and experience. The student's own efforts, individually, or together with others, are decisive for good learning outcomes. Students are expected to prepare ahead of organised teaching activities. Varied work methods are used both in theoretical subjects and in practical training and these can be carried out physically on campuses or on digital platforms. In some contexts, teaching activities only take place on one campus, and students must expect to travel to the relevant location.
The programme also prepares students for the labour market’s requirement of lifelong learning. Students are therefore expected to take ownership of their own learning process throughout the study programme, and will learn to both ‘become a nurse’ and ‘learn how to learn’. Students are also expected to contribute to creating a good learning environment for their fellow students through active participation in the different teaching activities.
Self-study and student cooperation
The attainment of the learning outcomes requires a high degree of self-study. Self-study entails both individual work and cooperation with fellow students, and it entails awareness of how you best learn. Students are recommended to take the initiative to form study groups.
Group work
Group work means working with other students. In the groups, students will discuss each other’s contributions and share knowledge and perspectives. They will gain experience of cooperation and of assessing, developing and disseminating relevant literature. The students will give and receive feedback from others.
Digital learning resources
Digital learning resources are for instance OsloMetX https://www.oslomet.no/ub/oslometxbokskapet@oslomet.no, or video clips, podcasts, games, academic texts, articles and interactive assignments used as part of the learning methods. Digital co-writing tools are used in some courses for the purpose of sharing knowledge and producing texts together. Digital self-corrected tests (quizzes) provide an opportunity for the students to practice and test their knowledge of the course content. Students receive an immediate response, which can serve as a basis for their continued learning.
Simulation and skills training (SF-unit)
Simulation and skills training gives the students the opportunity to learn everything from simple practical skills to making assessments in complex patient situations. Simulation and skills training will be a recurring part of the study programme and often taken place in simulation and skills training units (SF-unit) on campus. Reflection before, during and after actions will be emphasised. Some simulations may be filmed. Videos will always be deleted directly after the teaching session unless consent has been given to keep the videos.
Skills training in the programme will not be divided by gender.
Lectures
Lectures are used either to gain an overview of the course’s content or to delve into a specific topic. Lectures are used particularly when introducing new subject matter.
The flipped classroom
The flipped classroom is when the roles of lecturer and students are reversed, and students work with digital learning resources before attending class. Students work on problem-solving activities during teaching sessions, often in the form of group work or seminars.
Seminar/workshop
Students practice formulating an argument, expressing own opinions and reflecting on own attitudes and actions, in addition to presenting and discussing subject matter and assessing other people’s academic presentations.
Project work
Students study a topic relevant to the programme in depth, and develop skills in the systematic use of methods, including theoretical basis, data collection, analysis, discussion, written formulation and verbal communication.
Interprofessional cooperative learning (TPS)
Interprofessional cooperative learning comprises all ways of working where students participate in
teaching sessions with students from other programmes, or carry out educational activities in a practical training establishment that entail cooperation with professionals from other fields. Interprofessional cooperative learning can be arranged at the university, in the practical training establishment and through digital cooperation (webinars) with students in other countries.
Student BEST – Better and systematic team training
Student BEST is a teaching programme under a cooperation between the nursing-, radiography-, biomedical laboratory sciences and paramedic science programme, specialisation in anaesthesia (master programme) at OsloMet and the medicine programme at the University of Oslo. The learning programme builds on simulation in teams and is used as a training method in the admission and stabilising of trauma patients. The focus is communication and cooperation in interprofessional groups. The teaching takes place at the SF-units at OsloMet.
Practical training
Coursework requirements are all types of work, tests and compulsory attendance that are requirements for being permitted to take the examination. Required coursework is assessed as approved/not approved. The coursework requirements for each course are described in the relevant course description.
The primary purpose of coursework requirements is to promote students' progress and academic development and to encourage them to acquire new knowledge. The programme's main coursework requirements are in the form of compulsory attendance, written assignments and tests.
Compulsory attendance
Attendance is compulsory in areas where the student cannot acquire knowledge and skills simply by studying literature.
If a student does not take part in a group presentation, he/she must give an individual presentation to the lecturer.
If a student otherwise exceeds the maximum limit for absence stated in the course description, the subject teacher will consider whether it is possible to compensate for absence by meeting alternative requirements, for example individual written assignments. If it is not possible to compensate for the absence, the student must take the course the next time it is taught. Whether or not it is possible to compensate for absence depends on the extent of the student’s absence and which activities he/she has missed.
Written assignments
Several courses have compulsory written assignments or reports as part of their coursework requirements. Written work that is not approved must be improved before re-submission. If the work is not approved on re-submission, the student cannot take the ordinary examination/assessment.
The students are entitled to a third attempt before the resit/rescheduled examination. If an assignment is not approved the third time it is submitted, the student must re-take the course with the next class.
Internationalisation
Different forms of assessment are used on the programme that are adapted to the learning outcomes of the various courses. The forms of assessment used are intended to support learning and document the students’ level of competence in relation to the expected learning outcomes. All examinations taken that are part of the specialisation will appear on the diploma, as well as the title of the student’s master’s thesis. Students who take additional elective courses in excess of 120 credits get these on their transcript, and must choose which elective courses are to be included on the diploma. In general, the following forms of assessment are used in the programme:
Supervised individual examination
Taken at the university’s examination premises over a set number of hours.
Home examination
Taken over a set period of time at the end of the course, normally with a set question/assignment text unless otherwise stated in the course description.
Project examination
Taken over the whole or large parts of the course, normally with a topic decided by the students themselves unless otherwise stated in the course description.
Oral examination
Can take place individually or in groups. It can either be an independent form of assessment or used to adjust the grade awarded for another examination.
Practical examination
The assessment of specific practical skills either at the university or in the field of practice.
Assessment of practical training
Supervised practical training, assessed in accordance with the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University Chapter 8.
The assessment of examinations and practical training is carried out in accordance with the applicable rules set out in the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges, the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet and the Guidelines for Appointment and Use of examiners at OsloMet.
The forms of assessment and criteria are described in each course description.
Examinations
All courses conclude with an examination. The assessment is based on the learning outcomes for the course, and the degree to which the student has achieved the stipulated learning outcomes is assessed. In theoretical courses, the grades used are pass/fail or letter grades from A to F, with A being the highest grade and E the poorest pass grade. The grade F means that the student has failed the examination. The grades pass/fail are used for the assessment of practical training.
Resit and rescheduled examinations are carried out in the same manner as the ordinary examination unless otherwise specified in the course description. In special cases, resit and rescheduled examinations in courses with group examinations may be held as individual examinations.
For examinations where a percentage of the examination papers are selected for assessment by an external examiner, the external examiner's assessment should benefit all the students. In such cases, one external and one internal Examiner will first grade the selected papers. The internal examiner then continues grading the remaining papers together with another internal examiner. The assessments from the first part are summarised to serve as guidelines for the assessments carried out by the two internal examiners.
The grade awarded for a written examination can be appealed, cf. Section 5-3 of the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges and the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet. It is not possible to appeal the grades awarded for oral and practical examinations. In connection with group examinations, the result of an appeal will only have consequences for the candidate(s) who submitted the appeal. The other students will keep their original grade.
External programme supervisor
An external programme supervisor scheme is in place for the programme as required by the Guidelines for Appointment and Use of Examiners at OsloMet. The external supervisor will write an annual report on their work that will be included in the faculty’s area of the university’s quality assurance system.
Work requirements
Required coursework is all types of work, tests and compulsory attendance that are requirements for a student to be assessed/permitted to take the exam. Required coursework is assessed as approved/not approved. The coursework requirements for each course are described in the relevant course description.
The purpose of the coursework requirements is to:
- promote progress and academic development
- encourage students to seek out and acquire new knowledge
- facilitate cooperation on and communication about nursing issues
The programme has coursework requirements in the form of compulsory attendance, oral presentations, written assignments and tests. The coursework requirements are designed in a way that helps students to develop competence in line with the learning outcome descriptions in the course. Students are normally given three attempts at passing the required coursework. As far as possible, the second attempt will be given before the ordinary exam/assessment, unless otherwise stated in the course description. A third and final attempt is normally given before resit and rescheduled exams. If a piece of required coursework is not approved, this may lead to delayed progress in the programme. Required coursework is carried out individually or in groups.
Attendance
Attendance is compulsory for teaching activities covering subject matter that the student cannot acquire on his or her own. These requirements are made more concrete and visible in the course plans. This means that there is a requirement for attendance of 80 % in theory studies or 90 % in practical training in timetabled activities that are marked as compulsory.
If a student exceeds the maximum limit for absence, the person responsible for the course/lecturer will consider whether it is possible to compensate for absence by meeting alternative requirements, for instance oral or individual written assignments. Whether or not it is possible to compensate for absence depends on the extent of the student’s absence and which activities he/she has missed.
Written and digital work
Written and digital coursework requirements can be written work, work submitted in various forms, multiple choice questions etc. Coursework requirements that are not approved must normally be improved or retaken. The person responsible for the course/lecturer will assess whether alternative coursework can be carried out. This is agreed between the individual student/group and the person responsible for the course/lecturer.
Activities
Compulsory activities can include oral presentations, observation, participation in specific courses and workshops, simulation, practical skills tests, supervision etc. Coursework requirements that are not approved, must normally be improved or retaken. The person responsible for the course/lecturer will assess whether alternative coursework can be carried out. This is agreed between the individual student/group and the person responsible for the course/lecturer.
Assessment
Different forms of assessment are used on the programme that are adapted to the learning outcomes of the various courses. The forms of assessment used are intended to support learning and document that the students’ competence is adequate in relation to the applicable learning outcomes. During the programme, the students will be given advice, supervision and assessments of their performance. It is important and necessary to assess students’ knowledge and skills often, so that the students receive feedback on whether their performance is in line with the programme's requirements and whether they have achieved the learning outcomes.
The assessment of exams and practical training is carried out in accordance with the applicable rules set out in the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges, the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University, and the Guidelines for Appointment and Use of Examiners at OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University.
All courses taken will be stated on the diploma. In addition, the compulsory interdisciplinary teaching programs are highlighted on the diploma.
Assessment
The grades used are pass/fail or a grade scale with letter grades from A to F, where A is the highest grade, E is the lowest pass grade and F is a fail. Other teaching programs can be graded Approved-not approved. In connection with group exams, all students in the group are awarded the same grade.
Resits/rescheduled exams
Resit and rescheduled exams are carried out in the same manner as the ordinary exam unless otherwise specified in the course description. In special cases, resit and rescheduled exams in courses with group exams may be held as individual exams.
Appeals against grades
Grades awarded for written exams can be appealed. It is not possible to appeal the grades awarded for oral and practical exams. In connection with group exams, the result of an appeal will only have consequences for the candidate(s) who submitted the appeal. The other students will keep their original grade.
Assessment of practical training
Practical training is assessed as pass or fail and is assessed by the practical training supervisors in cooperation with the contact lecturer at the university. The final decision on whether to award a pass or fail grade is made by the university.
The assessment takes its point of departure in given criteria based on learning outcomes for the course, assessment criteria, the continuous assessment, the suitability assessment and compulsory activities carried throughout the practical training.
To pass the practical training, the student also must have met the compulsory attendance requirement. The practical training requires at least 90% attendance.
- Less than 10% absence: The student can complete the practical training course as normal.
- Between 10–20% absence: If possible, the student can make up for the practical training missed. This must be agreed with the practical training supervisor and the supervisor at the university.
- More than 20% absence: The student must retake the whole clinical training course
If the student exceeds the maximum limit for absence and does not have a valid documented absence, the practical course will be registered as failed and count as an attempt.
If the student has failed the practical training twice, he/she must normally leave the programme. Reference is also made to the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet.
One or more of these criteria is the basis for the grade Failed in practical training in bachelor's Programme in Nursing at OsloMet:
The student:
- has not complied with the attendance requirement or failed to attend practice training without a valid reason and without giving notice
- has not achieved learning outcomes and completed compulsory activities / written documentation made visible in the assessment form established for the practical training period
- has endangered the patient's life and health by going beyond the limits of their own competence
- has not requested or taken into account guidance, or shown a willingness to acquire a lack of knowledge or competence
- shows a lack of self-insight
- shows a lack of language and/or communication skills
Suitability assessment
The suitability assessment is a continuous overall assessment that takes place throughout the study programme. Diplomas for the completed programme will only be awarded to graduates who are suited to practise the profession. If the student shows signs of posing a threat to patients’ and/or colleagues' physical and mental health, rights and safety, questions should be raised about whether the person is fit to practice the profession. Staff from the university or the practical training establishment and fellow students can submit a notification of reasonable doubt. Students must be informed as early as possible that the notification has been submitted. They will be given supervision and advice on how to improve, or be advised to leave the programme.
The aim is to assess whether the students have the professional and personal preconditions required to work as a nurse. More detailed provisions about the assessment of suitability can be found her https://student.oslomet.no/en/suitability-assessment
Transfer discussion If a student or subject teacher/contact teacher reports a need for a transfer discussion, an interview can be called before the next course. In some cases, the head of studies and a representative of the Section for Academic Affairs may also attend.
The purpose of the transfer discussion is to clarify how the student can implement their learning outcomes in the best possible way in the next course, by facilitating various learning challenges and guidance needs.
External programme supervisor
The study programme has an external programme supervisor in line with the Guidelines for Appointment and Use of Examiners at OsloMet. The external programme supervisor is charged with evaluating the examination and assessment in:
- SYKK/SYKP1200 Microbiology and Infection Control
- SYKK/SYKP1300 Pharmacology and Administration of Medicine
