Objective: to analyze the perception of undergraduate nursing students about the theme, “the process of death and dying” and its approach during their training. Method: descriptive, exploratory study, with a qualitative approach developed with students of the last year of undergraduate nursing in a public university in Rio de Janeiro. Results: 57 students participated in the study and, after organizing the data, the following classes emerged: "Feelings about death"; "The need to approach the content of death in training education"; "The patient's death experience" and "Care attitude towards the process of death. Final considerations: nursing undergraduation education must have included the study of thanatology and the philosophy of palliative care, due to the importance given that death is an inexorable consequence of life. The study reaffirms the importance of this discussion happening during the nursing education training and over nursing work.
