• The mission of the Stony Brook School of Nursing is to prepare nurse leaders at all entries of practice to advance the health of the people of New York, the wider geographic regions, and the global community with a focus on the underserved. This is accomplished through innovative, high-quality, and accessible educational programs, clinical practice, research, and public service.
  • The nursing curriculum leads to a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Nursing. Students begin the nursing major after completing two years of pre-admission, general education coursework, either at Stony Brook University or another accredited institution. The nursing major applies principles from the sciences, art and humanities to patient-centered nursing practice.
