The core element of the activities at the institute is the clear orientation towards nursing practice and towards the perspectives of the people in need of care and their family members.

With the training of scientifically qualified personnel in the health and nursing sector, the Institute of Nursing Science also contributes to the integration of evidence-based nursing knowledge in the nursing practice and to the subsequent establishment of evidence-based nursing as a nursing standard.
