Nursing B.S. :: Home

Morrisville State College has been educating students for careers as Registered Professional Nurses (RNs) since 1965. This exciting profession allows for great flexibility in career paths, combined with the great rewards of helping people to realize the best possible level of health. RNs can prepare for additional employment opportunities and taking the next steps in their career by completing the Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Morrisville State College.

The baccalaureate program provides students the opportunity to enhance their nursing practice in the areas of family and community nursing, advanced health assessment and health promotion, nursing theory and research, ethics, organizational communications, systems theory, and leadership and management. General knowledge contributes to the nurse's ability to collaborate and design holistic care for a culturally diverse population of individuals, families, and communities.

Six cornerstones serve as the foundation for the college's nursing curriculum: Nursing Knowledge, General Knowledge, Professionalism, Communication, Technology and Life-long Learning. A range of academic subject matter and clinical experience supports the philosophy that the nurse prepared at this level provides health promotion and illness prevention through leadership roles collaborating, coordinating, directing and providing care for individuals, families, groups and communities and is an active participant in professional nursing activities. The baccalaureate nurse is also prepared to assume a leadership role in patient advocacy and political activism.

The program has been designed to provide many courses in an online format in order to remain accessible to students who are employed on a part- time or full-time basis.
