About the Department

We prepare nurses of the future with a nursing curriculum that not only offers hands on experience, but develops critical thinking, ethical decision making and effective communication skills. 

With its foundation in the liberal arts and sciences, the program offers a humanistic approach to patient care. It provides the latest in simulation technology, as well as clinical experiences and preceptorships at leading hospitals in the region. 

When students graduate they are prepared to provide quality care to patients across the lifespan and in all health care settings. They are also prepared to adapt to advances in technology and health care, as well as help lead those changes as their careers develop.
