The presence of violence between coworkers in nursing settings is a common fact that has been documented over time by using different terms to define the violence suffered by nurses and nursing students, although in recent years it has been agreed that the term "bullying" covers them all. This study aims to determine the prevalence and characteristics of bullying in nursing students, and to describe the association between the prevalence of bullying and socio-demographic attributes. A descriptive, observational, quantitative, and cross-sectional study was carried out of nursing students between 2017 and 2020. Socio-demographic variables were collected. Bullying was assessed through the NAQ-R questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the R statistical program. A total of 411 nursing students were included. A prevalence of perceived bullying of 92% was detected. The main negative attitudes identified were mandated tasks that are below the level of competence (66.3%), changes in tasks for other more trivial or unpleasant ones (60%), having opinions that are ignored (52%), and being excessively supervised (49%). The prevalence of bullying in nursing students at the University of Oviedo exceeds 90%, which suggests that interventions to solve the problem of bullying are urgent at the institutional, political, and organizational levels
