Bachelor of Science - Nursing

The pre-licensure Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree program prepares students for a lifelong career in nursing practice. The BSN program prepares students with a blend of course work, skills practice, simulation, and clinical experience. Students will learn foundational skills and theories in class. Critical thinking and nursing skills are developed in the practice lab working with preceptors in a safe, controlled environment. Simulation – either using high fidelity manikins or staged with real people – allows students to apply the skills and nursing theories while working on communication, teamwork, and making sound clinical decisions. In addition to countless hours in the practice and simulation lab, students will log more than 950 hours in clinical settings outside the college preparing them for successful nursing practice. Supplemental Pre-Professional tracks are available for students interested in pursuing further professional education. If there is interest in one of these tracks in addition to the degree, please let the recruiter know. The options are: • Pre-Dentistry • Pre-Medicine • Pre-Pharmacy

• Pre-Veterinary Medicine

With the largest program in the state, WSU has a history of graduating competent, compassionate nurses ready to practice in all healthcare settings.
