We prepare students to become skilled, compassionate RoyalRNs ? bedside clinicians, advocates, scholars and leaders ? in a university community centered around Catholic and Jesuit values.

Curriculum

Requirements for nursing degrees involve both classroom courses and significant clinical/laboratory work for optimal learning outcomes.

For the BSN, students start their study with biology and chemistry courses in their first year. They move on to the fundamentals of nursing and then begin taking courses in specialized areas ranging from nursing for mental health to pediatrics to community nursing.

As part of our emphasis on global learning, students have the opportunity to participate in our study abroad program. Where do they go? We tell them they are only limited by their own imagination! Examples of recent study abroad trips include Australia, Spain, England, Ireland and South Africa.
