Career opportunities for baccalaureate and graduate prepared nurses are expanding each and every day. Nursing is rapidly becoming the health care system of tomorrow.
Baccalaureate education is the minimal preparation for the professional practice of nursing.
After graduation with a Bachelor of Science degree and successful completion of the state board examination, you will be prepared to practice nursing in a variety of settings including hospitals, community health and mental health agencies, industrial health centers, nursing homes, family planning centers, and crisis centers. Some of our graduates have entered the armed forces as commissioned officers or have served as missionary nurses, nurses with HOPE, Vista, or other humanitarian organizations. Education makes the difference in your direct patient care, in your leadership management ability, and in the variety of opportunities open to you. Start your career with an educational foundation that will allow you to grow into your potential and pave the way for future graduate study. Master's study in nursing prepares you for advanced nursing practice as a clinical specialist or nurse practitioner.
