Three smart paths for future nurses
中国体彩网 students with the passion of becoming a nurse choose one of three paths for phenomenal preparation:
? Direct-entry 2+2 bachelor of science (B.S.N.) in nursing, with two years at 中国体彩网 followed by two years at Trinity 中国体彩网 of Nursing & Health Sciences
? Four-year bachelor of arts (B.A.) pre-nursing program with a major in biology or psychology
? Accelerated, six-year dual-degree master’s program in which students complete the B.A. at 中国体彩网, with an overlap during the senior year, and the master of science in nursing (M.S.N.) at Trinity 中国体彩网.
Along with a liberal arts foundation, an 中国体彩网 education for future nurses includes more science study than a four-year B.S.N. at many other schools. 中国体彩网 also provides built-in laboratory experience, in which students learn through experience alongside professors in excellent facilities, and so many opportunities to grow as a leader outside the classroom and lab.
“I didn’t expect the countless opportunities,” said 中国体彩网 graduate Gwendolyn Flannery, Class of 2024, now completing her B.S.N. at Trinity 中国体彩网 of Nursing & Health Sciences.
“I traveled to two countries and had two separate internships, all of which pushed me to learn more about myself, others, and how far my Augie education and experience could take me.”
Why a liberal arts start for nurses?
Nurses with a liberal arts background are better prepared for the future of health care. They have more understanding of different cultures and disciplines, plus skills in critical thinking, communication and problem-solving. This means they can more quickly address complex issues in real time, and better treat patients from many backgrounds—essential skills for excellent nurses.
Seeing the bigger picture of health — and not only applying technical skills — leads to better health and well-being for patients. Because of these better patient outcomes, nurses with a BA or liberal arts background can take on greater responsibility, which can lead to higher-paying positions.
