A morte é o fenômeno através do qual é posto fim a vida. Esse cenário remete aos seres humanos comportamentos emocionais diferentes, seja no indivíduo que está morrendo ou em seus familiares. No espaço hospitalar, a morte remove seu aspecto sagrado e de finitude e os profissionais de saúde assumem os cuidados com esse processo. Entretanto, ao contrário do que se possa imaginar, nem sempre esses profissionais estão aptos a lidar com esse processo. Tendo em vista que o profissional da Enfermagem vivencia, diariamente, os conflitos entre a morte e a vida, muitas vezes, este sai despreparado da graduação, receoso com o momento de lidar com essa dualidade. Assim, este estudo tem por objetivo compreender a visão dos acadêmicos de Enfermagem de uma Universidade privada do município de Natal, no Estado do Rio Grande do Norte, quanto ao entendimento dos mesmos sobre o tema morte e o morrer, trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, exploratória com abordagem quantitativa, que foi realizada em uma Universidade Privada do Município de Natal. A população entrevistada foi de 125 alunos do nono e décimo períodos, que responderam a um questionário. Nas respostas, 53% dos acadêmicos entrevistados já presenciaram algum óbito durante as práticas curriculares e 51% afirmam estar preparados para informar notícias difíceis. Em relação a estudar sobre a tanatologia na graduação, 98% dos alunos considera importante. Mediante o estudo, conclui-se que as respostas obtidas pelos participantes, o resultado foi surpreendente, pois se esperavam respostas negativas a respeito da preparação do graduando quanto à temática, pelo fato de não terem na grade curricular a disciplina tanatologia, e mesmo que as respostas tenham sido intermediárias se retomam as questões com a certeza de que não foi concluído, visto que as respostas motivaram para a inquietante discussão sobre o processo de morte e morrer.
