Faculty in the Patricia A. Chin School of Nursing believes that nursing as a health care profession, systematically assists patients/clients in achieving their optimal health or health-related goals. This goal of is achieved by implementing a system of holistic care for individuals, families and communities.

The nursing curriculum prepares nurses for professional careers in the maintenance and promotion of health and in supportive, preventive, therapeutic, and restorative nursing care for individuals, families, and communities in institutional and community-based settings. Students who complete the undergraduate program will have acquired knowledge and skills specific to generalized professional nursing practice and will be qualified to assume leadership roles. Students who complete the graduate program will be prepared to function in advanced nursing practice roles as nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, or case managers or in nursing administration or education roles.
