In Niagara College's Myhal School of Nursing you can...

  • assist patients with physical or psychosocial challenges during all stages of life;
  • provide valued and necessary care to patients as part of the health care team; or
  • as an International student, explore advanced health care training options such as mental health, palliative care, gerontology, or health care leadership.

The Niagara College Myhal School of Nursing prepares students for rewarding careers in several health-care disciplines. Courses are taught by supportive faculty with significant expertise in their respective fields with a strong emphasis on providing students with access to hands-on learning experiences via NC’s state-of-the-art lab facilities as well as field placements and practicums. Students can also earn additional certifications along with their credential; access unique bridging opportunities; have the option to apply for professional certifications post-graduation; and enjoy a unique interprofessional educational experience that focuses on integrating several health-care professionals into a single team to provide the best possible patient care.

In April 2025, Niagara College renamed its School of Nursing and Personal Support Worker to the Myhal School of Nursing, in recognition of a transformational $5-million gift from the Myhal Family Foundation which supports the College’s Applied Health building expansion and the creation of new student scholarships through its Together campaign. George and Rayla Myhal are prominent philanthropists and owners of Featherstone Winery in Vineland. Education and healthcare are among the sectors they are committed to supporting through their family foundation.
