Our mission is to educate and prepare students to be registered nurses at the Associate of Science level who are able to meet the health care challenges of today and the future. The graduate is eligible to write the licensure examination to become a registered nurse.
Students develop knowledge, skills, abilities, and values needed to practice nursing.
Liberal art courses serve as an essential background for the nursing courses in the curriculum. The nursing curriculum prepares the graduate as a clinical generalist, a participant and utilizer of research, and a life-long learner in professional nursing practice. The goal of the program is to prepare nurses to provide direct patient care. Career opportunities are varied, extensive and continually expanding, providing economic security, geographic mobility and unlimited opportunities for professional growth and personal development. The number of students that can be admitted to the program is limited.
