The nursing students’ conference has been an annual event since its inception in 2010. The conference was the brainchild of the final year nursing students of the Bachelor of Nursing with Honours Programme. In keeping with its tradition, the final year undergraduate nursing students carry on the torch each year to organize this landmark event together with members from the Department of Nursing and the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. This event is also supported by UNIMAS Business School and HRD Corp.

The theme for the conference this year “Our Nurses, Our Future: Building a Resilient Workforce Together” envisions a healthcare system where nurses are not only valued and supported but also equipped with the tools and resources needed to lead, innovate, ultimately building a sustainable and high-quality healthcare system for the community. As with previous years, the conference hopes to garner participation from both local and international institutions which will be attended by medical and allied health personnel from various private, governmental and educational institutions.
