Associate of Science Degree (A.S.)
Bachelor of Science Degree (B.S.)

Program Description

The associate and baccalaureate degree programs provide
the theoretical and clinical foundations for educational and
career mobility in nursing. The programs are designed to
prepare students for work in rural and Native American health care
settings. The curricula incorporate the four competencies of
critical thinking, communication, cultural competence,
and citizenship.

The associate degree nurse (RN/ASN) is prepared to provide
direct care to clients in institutional and community-based
settings. The baccalaureate degree nurse (RN/BSN)
coordinates and manages the health care of complex
client populations in all health care settings. All levels of
nursing collaborate with clients, families, and other health
care providers to achieve quality, cost-effective health care
outcomes.

Accreditation

The RN/ASN and RN/BSN programs are accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (NLNAC). Nursing Program information is printed in this catalog, the ASN and RN/BSN program information guides, the ASN and RN/BSN Handbooks, and at
