Campuses and Courses

IHM operates from its campus in Parramatta, NSW, which is a suburb of Sydney. The campus is equipped with nursing simulation laboratories, computer and library facilities and modern classrooms.

These courses include the Graduate Diploma in Nursing (GDN) with graduate certificate exit point (GCN) and the Graduate Diploma of Nursing (Paediatric Nursing), as well as the Nursing Career Advancement Program.

These short courses, primarily undertaken for the purposes of professional development and knowledge advancement, are delivered online through an interactive learning format that allows students to connect with subject matter experts, educators and peers. Some of these courses include Critical Care Nursing, Gerontological Nursing, Emergency and trauma Nursing, Pediatric Nursing, Renal Nursing, Perioperative Nursing and Orthopedic nursing.
