Charles Darwin University was one of the first universities in Australia to offer our Bachelor of Nursing degree remotely (also known as online, external or distance education). We have been teaching this way for almost 20 years, and have become experts at online education.

Our students choose to study this way because they often have other commitments in their life that are equally as (or more!) important than uni.
