Bachelor of Science in Nursing 

The undergraduate nursing program consists of the generic programs and the RN to BSN program. The program is based on a Judeo-Christian heritage and humanistic framework which seeks to lay a foundation for safe, compassionate, and multiculturally sensitive professional practice. The program prepares clinically competent professional registered nurses for employment settings that require: critical thinking and leadership/management skills to communicate with patients and other health care providers; participation in change related to the provision of nursing care; the inculcation of nursing and health related research; the ability to educate individuals, families, and communities regarding health promotion, risk reduction, and disease prevention; participation in continued personal and professional growth; and preparation for graduate study in nursing.
