The nursing profession is of great interest to my pioneers and educators in the educational and health sectors in the Kingdom. Most of these interests are focused on the development of professions scientifically and practically by supporting higher education and vocational training in academic organizations and health institutions. During the recent period, the nursing profession has entered the midst of major changes focused on the development of the academic sector to improve the outcomes of education through several radical decisions, the most important of which is the decision to transform all health colleges of the Ministry of Health to become a nursing education official under the umbrella of the Ministry of Higher Education, which constitutes a major accountability for Saudi universities in the graduation of nursing practitioners and through these changes, which constituted a turning point not to facilitate the nursing profession highlights the importance of unifying the efforts of workers in the Saudi universities in the graduation of nursing practitioners, which constituted a turning point not to facilitate the nursing profession. Nursing in the academic field and trying to arrange priorities at this critical stage. The role of the Faculty of Nursing is a key role in the development of the profession as it is one of the health colleges of King Saud University, which is currently seeking through its strategic plans to be the leading university in education, research and community service. Therefore, this proposal gives an administrative and academic vision of the status of the Faculty of Nursing and the role expected of it at this critical stage, in which King Saud University enjoys academic research that contributes to the development of education in general and the improvement of outputs in certain disciplines. The nursing profession begins with basic education in universities and ends with safe practice in hospitals and health centers. The Agency of the Faculty of Nursing for Graduate Studies and Scientific Research performs many tasks and looks forward to upgrading graduate studies and scientific research within the Faculty of Nursing and finding appropriate graduate programs by following up on the requirements of the labor market in various nursing specialties. The master's program in nursing began with its different paths in 1407 as the first postgraduate program in the Kingdom. Since then, hundreds of female students have joined the program to serve in the kingdom's various health sectors. The master's program has recently been opened for students to find an opportunity to complete their postgraduate studies. The agency has also taken on the process of developing scientific research by creating a suitable research environment for faculty members and graduate students and encouraging them to take advantage of the opportunities available by the Deanship of Scientific Research and King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology represented in the Program of the National Plan for Science and Technology. The agency has lately established a specialized research center in the college to be consistent with the university's objectives in transforming scientific research into a knowledge economy that is in line with the guidance of our rational state.
