The Faculty of Nursing (UOC)

Faculty of Nursing, University of Colombo, is the first ever nursing faculty in Sri Lanka, which is the latest extension of a wing of the oldest and top ranked national state university in the island, University of Colombo. The overall aim of Faculty of Nursing is to enhance Sri Lanka’s capacity to produce graduate nurses who are capable of catering for both national and international health care needs with advanced knowledge and skills which are based on a sound theoretical and practical foundation.

The establishment of the new faculty will be a driving force of its harbor ‘University of Colombo’ in achieving the excellence in building synergies between knowledge, education and research, collaborating with its remaining eight faculties with academic departments, campus, school, seven institutes and five centers.
