During the two years at the School of Nursing,
students are enrolled in clinical nursing courses and
support courses. They explore content related to
theoretical bases for nursing and understanding human
values and behavior. The clinical nursing courses
include lecture, lab practice, small group discussion,
independent study, and clinical practice. In addition,
students participate in professional seminars designed
to develop group leadership skills and to introduce
students to roles of the professional nurse. Through
creative and individualized learning strategies, the
student's nursing education is broadened, enriched, and
personalized.
Graduates are prepared to meet the requirements for
admission to state board examinations for licensure in
the United States. The baccalaureate program provides a
solid educational foundation, which serves as the basis
for graduate level education.
