Nursing Courses

From the classroom to the clinical experiences, our courses prepare you for a career as a professional nurse.

Learn nursing by doing nursing

Our classes are led by our exceptional faculty in a variety of settings 鈥� from skills labs and simulation to clinical experiences in local hospitals and other health care facilities. In our practicum courses, the professor who teaches you in the theory portion of the class will usually be with you in the health care setting, providing context and experience for everything you learn. You will also graduate with real research experience, helping to position you for success after graduation.

Pre-requisite听and co-requisite courses

All nursing students are required to take the following courses:

Recommendations for Freshman

Students admitted to the program begin taking nursing courses during the fall semester of their sophomore year, but the courses you take as a freshman lay an important foundation.

Most students take Biology 103 in the fall of their freshmen year in order to apply in February
All incoming freshmen take IDS 100: First Year Seminar
Most incoming freshmen take Kinesiology 140: Health Dynamics
Second language, Psychology 100, Sociology 101 or English 113 are all appropriate for the fall semester of freshman year
Try to complete your second language requirement before your junior year
Try to complete your cultural heritage requirements prior to senior year
If you plan to study abroad during a spring or fall semester, discuss this with a nursing department faculty member during freshmen orientation

Four-year course plans

The nursing courses at Hope are highly sequenced. To graduate in four years, we strongly recommend following the course sequence suggested in our four-year course plan.

Talk to your advisor early about ways to incorporate a minor or plan ahead for off-campus study opportunities.

Nursing and the Liberal Arts

As a 熊猫在线视频 nursing major, you will have the opportunity to take many classes outside of nursing, allowing you to explore other interests, gain a stronger sense of global awareness and grow into a more competent and caring nurse. You will be able to:

Take non-nursing classes throughout the entirety of your 熊猫在线视频 experience
Challenge yourself with courses exploring history, philosophy and literature
Learn a new language, give printmaking a go, join Brazilian drumming group, or try hip-hop
Take classes for your body, mind, and spirit
