Typical Program of Courses for a Student Majoring in Nursing

Registered Nurse Degree Completion Track

The RN-BSN completion track is based on the same philosophy, purposes, graduate characteristics, and conceptual framework as the traditional track. However, in recognition of the special needs of the working adult, the curriculum is packaged to accommodate the adult student. RN-BSN students are encouraged to contact the School of Graduate and Continuing Studies for information. See also School of Graduate and Continuing Studies  of this Catalog.
