Program Overview - RN-Bachelor of Science

This 64-credit upper division bachelor’s degree nursing education program accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) is designed for registered nurses interested in pursuing a higher level of education for professional nursing practice. Graduates of associate degree or diploma programs in nursing are eligible upon admission to transfer in 60 credits of prerequisite course work from their basic nursing education program to pursue a Bachelor of Science on a full-time or part-time basis. The pre-admission requirements have been determined to allow most prospective students a seamless transition to the upper division program.

Nursing, as the largest profession and one of the fastest growing fields in health care, offers exciting, rewarding, and challenging career options. This program of study prepares nurses to function as generalists in practice when assuming the many excellent and ever-expanding employment opportunities available nationwide.

The nursing education program at Le Moyne is an ideal fit with the College’s mission of preparing students for leadership and service to society. The centerpiece of this curriculum, which includes a combination of primarily classroom study and a couple of selected practicum experiences, is designed for the education and development of the professional nurse. Simultaneously, this curriculum consists of a comprehensive set of core liberal arts and science courses, which are required of all students regardless of major and serve as the underpinnings for the education of the whole person. This unique program of study in nursing is truly a “thinking” curriculum that affords students the necessary perspectives and skills to form their beliefs, value systems, and commitments to positions of leadership and service in their personal and professional lives.
