The Center offers learning and housing two blocks from the Capitol. Internships in health-related agencies are included. Highly qualified students may apply as freshmen or sophomores for seamless progression through bachelor's and master's nursing programs at Marquette.
Students prepare for roles as nurse practitioners, nurse-midwives, or clinical nurse specialists.
In addition, students can be involved at the state level through the Wisconsin Student Nurses Association and at the national level through the National Student Nurses Association. Through these memberships, nursing students begin their involvement in their professional organization. They learn about current issues and policies which may affect their practice when they become registered nurses. Questions, comments or suggestions to Cathy Morrell at Cathy.
