NURSING
Students will develop entry-level skills for work in hospitals, clinics and other inpatient/outpatient health care settings. Nursing students participate in both classroom instruction and supervised patient care experiences, which focus on the prevention of disease and the promotion of a healthy lifestyle. Fundamentals of leadership and management may be included as a vital part of your curriculum. Dedication to community and a spirit of giving back may be emphasized.
