Objective: to discuss the inclusion of the topic of violence against women in undergraduate nursing courses at public universities in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Method: qualitative documentary study focused on a descriptive analysis of the curriculum and program content of the Women's Health academic subjects in undergraduate nursing courses in Rio de Janeiro regarding the presence of this content in nursing training. Results: regarding the mandatory academic subjects found in the curriculum, it was evident that there is no explicit content that deals with violence against women in the six universities participating in the study. In the academic programs analyzed, it was noted that, of the twelve mandatory subjects distributed in the universities, only four mention the topic under discussion. Final considerations: there is a gap in the academic program regarding this topic. Including violence against women in the nursing program enables future professionals to deal with these situations in an effective and humane way.
