Nursing (RN-BSN)

When designing our RN to BSN degree completion program, we listened to what working nurses told us they needed. That means the online courses are practical and relevant to today’s health care professional. Students can tie their personal and professional experience into the coursework. Classes such as Ethical, Cultural and Spiritual Nursing Practice and Leadership and Health Care Organizations have a strong thread of ethics, leadership and knowledge of health care systems woven into them.
