The Department of Nursing offers a baccalaureate degree program which leads to a Bachelor of Science with a major in nursing. High school graduates, transfer students, and students who hold degrees in other disciplines may apply to the program.
Special programs are available for registered nurses and licensed practical nurses.
We are committed to providing a high quality academic program which builds on a foundation of general education. The general education is used to facilitate the development of a broadly educated citizen, to support the nursing major and is integrated throughout the program. We are committed to a teaching-learning environment characterized by individual attention to students and their learning needs. Classroom and clinical experiences are provided to assist students to utilize critical thinking and communication skills in the application of theory to their professional and personal endeavors. Resources are selected to provide a variety of modes for the student to pursue both guided and independent learning.
