Show More UNBC offers Canada's first and only graduate program in disability management providing graduates with the knowledge and skills necessary to assist labor, management, insurance providers, employers and employees with the development of successful work entry or return-to-work strategies for injured workers and/or persons with disabilities. Entry RequirementsEnglish Language Requirements English is the primary language of instruction and communication at UNBC. Consequently, it is expected that an applicant be able to demonstrate an acceptable level of proficiency in the use of English in order to receive and participate in classroom instruction and discussion as well as to complete written assignments. Applicants whose first language is not English, regardless of citizenship or country of origin, must submit evidence of English language proficiency prior to admission. French-speaking Canadians and Canadian First Nations language speakers are exempted from this requirement. Students who completed their undergraduate degree program entirely in the English language are exempted from this requirement. Acceptable evidence of English language proficiency may be any one of the following:
• TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) score of 88 or higher in the internet-based test, with not less than 20 in any of the Reading, Listening, Writing or Speaking components; or equivalent other TOEFL score. UNBC's institutional TOEFL code is 0320. Admission to Master's Degrees 1.3.1 In general, an acceptable academic standing will be a four-year (120 credit hours) Baccalaureate degree (or equivalent) from a recognized institution. 1.3.2 A grade point average of at least 3.00 ("B") in the work of the last 60 credit hours (approximately the last two years) leading to the Baccalaureate degree is required for entry. Note: Higher entrance standards than those outlined in this section may be set by individual programs. Courses used in the calculation of the admission grade point average cannot be used as credit toward a graduate degree program. 1.3.3 A faculty member who wishes to supervise an applicant to a Graduate Program who has a four-year (120 credit hours) Baccalaureate degree (or equivalent) which does not meet the grade point average requirements stated above and who obtains the recommendation of the appropriate program may seek approval from the Dean of Graduate Programs to admit the applicant. The applicant must have significant formal training and relevant professional experience to offset such grade point average deficiencies. 1.3.4 Evidence is required, in the form of three letters of reference that are submitted directly to the Office of the Registrar from qualified referees, of the student's ability to undertake advanced work in the area of interest. 1.4 Admission to the Master's Degree as a Conditionally Admitted Mature Student Five years after completion of a Baccalaureate degree as defined in 1.3.1, applicants whose academic record is such that they would not be admissible to a Master's program may be admitted conditionally as mature students, provided they are recommended by the appropriate Program. Such recommendations must be made in writing by the Program and approved by the Dean of Graduate Programs. The minimum grade point average for admission to a Master's program as a conditionally admitted mature student is 2.67 ("B-"). A student conditionally admitted to a graduate program must earn a grade point average of at least 3.00 ("B") in each of the first two 3 credit hour graduate courses taken. The first two courses will be determined by the Program and approved by the Dean of Graduate Programs. If this condition is successfully met, the student's status will be changed to regular graduate student status. If it is not, the student will be required to withdraw from the program.
Students admitted in this category normally will not receive transfer credit for any courses completed prior to enrolling in their Graduate Program.

Show More The major emphases of the nurse practitioner tracks are to develop graduates with: 1. A base for continued inquiry and contributions to the art and science of nursing and the knowledge and skills to exert a leadership role in the formulation of healthcare policy, 2. Expertise in the provision of health care, and 3. Leadership ability in today’s healthcare environment. Students complete courses in theory of advanced nursing practice where they develop skills in making independent clinical judgments as well as participate in experiences involving peer review, client advocacy, the development of collaborative, interdisciplinary relationships and role negotiation. Clinical instruction is carried out by nurse practitioners and/or physicians who model collaborative practice behaviors. This model of instruction allows the student to see the complementary roles of the advanced practice nurse and the physician and demonstrates the unique contributions of nursing to the care of clients. The A.G.N.P. program prepares nurses to provide a range of healthcare services that promote wellness, prevent illness and manage health and illness needs of adults across the lifespan. The scope of practice of either the primary care or acute care N.P. is not setting specific, but is based on patient care needs. The particular expertise of the primary care A.G.N.P. emphasizes disease prevention, health promotion and the management of patients with acute and chronic multi-system health problems. The patient population of the acute care A.G.N.P. includes care of patients with complex acute, critical and chronic illness, disability and/or injury. The number of credits and clinical hours are determined by requirements for board certification in adult-gerontology. Graduates of the A.G.N.P. M.S.N. track complete a minimum of 600 supervised clinical practice hours and are eligible to sit for national certification in Primary Care or Acute Care through either the American Nurses Credentialing Center or the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners Certification Program.
Entry RequirementsThe following prerequisites for admission must have been achieved by candidates prior to admission to a master’s-level program. - Graduation from an N.L.N.A.C. or C.C.N.E.-accredited baccalaureate nursing program with a cumulative 3.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale - Proof of current licensure as a registered nurse
