An Office of Student Services exists as a resource for all generic and MINE BSN students. A full-time director serves to assist students before, during and after the degree program through such functions as recruitment, analysis of transfer students' transcripts, academic advising, and verification of awarded degrees. The Emergency Health Science Department is housed in V. L. Wharton Hall. Facilities include classrooms, conference rooms, a student reading room and student lounge. The College of Nursing and Allied Health Professions Learning Resource Center and EMHS Skills Laboratories are available to students, as well as an extensive collection of audiovisual equipment, computers and software.
Students learn through hands-on experience.
Clinical and field work is a major part of the second-year program, and students observe and participate in the care of patients at area hospitals and ambulance services.
