About
The School of Nursing provides students the advanced knowledge and skills necessary to succeed
and find satisfaction in a constantly evolving career. Nursing is an exciting profession, challenged by growing complexity in both patient care and the healthcare system.

The School of Nursing also offers a Graduate Certificate in School Nursing which reflects contemporary School Nursing practice from the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child perspective.
The baccalaureate curriculum is grounded in professional standards of care defined by the American Nurses Association, National League for Nursing, American Association for Colleges of Nursing and individual specialty organizations.
