[ Mission ]
To enhance the Ryerson University experience for Nursing students by offering services, events, and support in the academic and social setting.
As the Nursing Course Union, we are committed to:
- Organizing a variety of social, educational, equitable, and Nursing-related events
- Advocating with Nursing students for program-specific concerns and social movements
- Promoting social interaction among peers, in and out of the academic and placement setting
- Acting as a liaison between Nursing students, faculty, staff, and program administrators
- Providing leadership, skill development, and networking opportunities for Nursing students
- Collaborating with professional organizations, course unions, student groups, and the Ryerson Students’ Union which will connect Nursing students to the Ryerson community at large
[ Philosophy ]
To guide our conduct and behaviour as the Nursing Course Union, we follow a set of core values as we work towards our vision:
- Empowerment: By improving transparency of program-specific concerns and student initiatives, we believe Nursing students will feel empowered as they are informed of what is happening on campus and of the services and resources available to them. Nursing students can be empowered with opportunities to get involved through leadership, followership, or as an ally.
- Peer Support: Throughout our educational experience, we learn a variety of methods to care for our individual self, our clients, and our communities, however, we strongly believe it is also important to promote peer-led support for each other as current Nursing students and as future nurses, in and out of the academic and placement setting.
- Capacity Building: Although we are all in the same institution studying to be in the same health care profession, it is essential that we acknowledge our own unique talents and individuality. Together we will continue to build on our personal strengths and experiences by creating a culture of innovative Nursing students.
