Department Profile

The Nursing Program is an integral part of the Health Occupations Division. The mission of the nursing program is to prepare entry level Registered Nurses to meet the needs of diverse populations in an ever-changing healthcare environment. The nursing program is composed of twelve full-time faculty, 20 adjunct faculty, and 140 full-time students. We believe that nursing education is driven by the application of critical thinking and sound judgment and the development of teaching/learning strategies using innovative approaches and evidence-based research. Education is based on mastery learning and is viewed by the nursing faculty as a collaborative process involving college administrators and staff, nursing faculty and nursing students. Each student enters the nursing program with unique characteristics, capabilities, learning styles, and motivation for learning. To address learning style differences, curriculum experiences are structured from simple to complex and are delivered in varied methodologies to connect with all learning domains. The program embraces the diversity of cultural, linguistic and philosophical differences represented in the student body. Course experiences are designed to encourage discussion, inquiry, collaboration and application of cultural practices that are unique to the individuals and groups represented in the campus and in the community. The goal of the program is to promote students' creativeness, critical thinking, clinical judgment, and personal growth based on successful learning experiences. Students are expected to participate actively in the learning process and to positively collaborate with faculty and student peers. The program is on full approval from the Board of Registered Nursing and full accreditation from Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN).
