Bachelor in Nursing

Tuition fees for Bachelor in Nursing are 900 EUR per year.

Nursing is a bachelor's program taught in English at Universita degli Studi di Roma "La Sapienza", in Roma, Italy, running over 3 years. The discipline prepares students to provide direct patient care across hospital, community, and home care settings, combining scientific knowledge with clinical practice. Students typically study human anatomy and physiology, pharmacology, pathology, and nursing theory, alongside supervised clinical placements that build practical skills in patient assessment, medication administration, wound care, and the monitoring of vital signs. Coursework often covers maternal and child health, mental health nursing, care of older adults, and the management of chronic and acute conditions. The field also addresses communication with patients and families, ethical and legal responsibilities in healthcare, and collaboration within multidisciplinary care teams involving doctors, therapists, and social workers. Because nursing combines theoretical study with hands-on clinical training, the discipline places significant emphasis on supervised practice in real healthcare settings alongside classroom instruction. Graduates typically pursue careers as registered nurses in hospitals, clinics, community health services, and long-term care facilities, with opportunities to specialize further in areas such as intensive care, pediatrics, or public health nursing. Admission to this program is limited to a fixed number of places, known as numero programmato, and requires a secondary school diploma. Studying nursing in English at an Italian university gives international students clinical training within Italy's healthcare system while based in Roma, the capital of Italy. As a 3-year bachelor's degree, the program follows the standard structure for nursing education, combining academic study with the clinical hours required to prepare graduates for professional practice.
