Baccalaureate education prepares
professional nurses as generalists in clinical practice. The
professional program builds on a foundation of knowledge in
science, humanities and related professional disciplines,
and has ten goals.
Curriculum is designed as a four year (180 credit) program:
two years of prerequisite course work in general studies prior
to two years of professional course work within the nursing
major. Each prerequisite and nursing course must be completed
with a grade of at least 2.0 on a 4.0 scale. Courses meeting
the visual, literary and performing arts category and individual
and societies category must be completed with a passing grade.
The two years of nursing course
work are full-time with lecture classes scheduled during the
day, and clinical hours scheduled during day, evening, or
night-time hours.
Curricular themes woven throughout BSN coursework are: critical
thinking, health and human functioning, care and therapeutics,
person/environment fit and health care resources. Clinical
experiences occur in a wide variety of hospital and community
settings serving diverse populations where role development,
decision making, health status evaluation, and scholarship
are emphasized.
