The objective of this study includes the professional identity of nurses in the view of students, defining the purpose of discussing the factors that contributed to the training of professional identity of the nurse over the period of training. The research is descriptive and exploratory, with a qualitative approach. Research subjects were 11 students studying nursing at the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN). It was approved by the Ethics Committee of the UFRN by Opinion N^o. 120/2010 and N^o. CAAE 0037.0.051.000-10. The data was analyzed using the technique of content analysis. The students pointed out that the attitude of motivated teachers to the profession is fundamental to the construction of this identity. Moreover, the experiences and practices in services during the stages it proved indispensable to touch upon the idea of what is really being a nurse. Despite the biases that arise during the course, the students viewed the importance of SAE as a way to enhance their work and improve patient care. However, the matter should be discussed more often during training as a way to help build this vision for future nurses.
