School of Nursing

Nursing, The Ateneo Way

Since 2001, the Ateneo de Davao School of Nursing has built a tradition of academic excellence and compassionate service. The Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Master in Nursing, and Master of Arts in Nursing programs are designed around the total formation of the student, equipping future nurses not only with the clinical expertise the profession demands, but also the communication and technology skills essential in modern healthcare.

At the heart of the School’s mission are the Jesuit values of magis, the pursuit of the greater good, and cura personalis, genuine care for the whole person. These principles shape every nurse formed here: skilled professionals who lead and serve with heart, ready to make a lasting difference in the lives they touch.

The Nursing program houses state-of-the-art simulation laboratories that offer interactive, hands-on environments to master caring techniques and clinical skills geared toward the well-being of individuals, families, and communities. Classroom learning builds on this foundation, blending academic depth with practical know-how to give students an edge in global healthcare.

Guiding this journey are expert professors with advanced degrees and rich clinical experience, who inspire critical thinking and nurture a genuine passion for service. Within the library, a wealth of resources — books, journals, digital databases, and online knowledge portals — enriches the life of the mind.
