Introduction
At Lincoln University School of Nursing, our Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program will prepare you to function safely, efficiently, and competently in the generalized nursing field. The BSN degree prepares students to value excellence, provide leadership, and foster community within the field of nursing. However, graduation from the BSN program does not guarantee eligibility to take the licensure exam. The Lincoln University School of Nursing is led by dedicated and professional nursing experts that will provide you the skills necessary to succeed.
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program prepares individuals for professional nursing practice. The emphasis within the program is placed on the nurse's roles and the Essentials of Baccalaureate Education for Professional Nursing Practice as defined by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN, 2008). The program offers on-campus classes, as well as some online general education and nursing courses. The program is designed for students who desire an initial entry into nursing at the baccalaureate degree level. The program was initiated due to reports from the Institute of Medicine (IOM), indicating that nurses must be minimally educated at the bachelor's degree level to ensure optimal patient outcomes due to healthcare complexity.
