Program Description

The B.S. in Nursing degree-completion program is offered for the licensed, practicing Registered Nurse. The program is delivered through a combination of distance technologies. Nurses are expected to progress through the program in a cohort-based model with required nursing courses being offered on a single day per week.

The degree-completion program prepares a fully accountable, professional B.S. prepared Registered Nurse. The Graduates practice nursing that centers on a sacred, therapeutic relationship with patients and their families; practice that is characterized by vigilance in keeping patients safe and protected from harm. Such nursing care is grounded in the best available evidence and reflects a spirit of inquiry in delivering clinically excellent care of the whole patient. The UP nurse thrives in the constant, complex change that defines contemporary health care delivery, and is prepared to effectively lead and manage through it.

Admission requirements for the B.S. in Nursing degree-completion program can be found on the University website. Students complete all required nursing and other coursework at their designated hospital receive site.
