Clinical experiences are offered in area health facilities, community health agencies, and a state-of-the-art simulation laboratory. The senior year culminates in a capstone practicum, NURS 721C (see: /search/?P=NURS%20721C) Integrating Professional Nursing Practice Clinical, in which students apply curricular concepts in a precepted clinical experience. Candidates for the nursing degree must satisfy all of the University Discovery Program requirements in addition to satisfying major requirements.\n \n The nursing program faculty believe learning is a creative process wherein students are active participants in their education, growth, and development as professional nurses. Faculty members are facilitators and mentors to students within a supportive, scholarly environment.\n \n A grade of C or better in high school chemistry is required as well as biology or physics.

Most of the prerequisite courses also meet Discovery requirements. Major courses require a minimum grade of C. Nursing courses may not be repeated. A cumulative grade-point average of 2.5 must be maintained throughout the program.\n \n Students are responsible for their own transportation to clinical agencies, uniforms, professional equipment, health insurance coverage, yearly criminal background checks, drug and alcohol screening, fingerprinting, yearly health assessment, and select immunizations and titers. Students must maintain certification in cardiopulmonary resuscitation at the American Heart Association Basic Life Support for Healthcare Professionals level. All clinical documents must be received by July 1st before the sophomore year, except flu vaccine, which is due by October 15th, and remain up to date until graduation. Clinical documents cannot expire during the academic year; documents that must be submitted yearly must be dated between May 1 and June 30. Students will be assessed a late fee if clinical documents are not received by the due date. Students will be dropped from nursing courses if documentation is not received by the first day of class. Additional costs associated with the program include, but are not limited to, simulation laboratory fees, fees associated with program requirements, and attendance at professional meetings.\n \n Honors-in-Major Program\n \n \r\n\n \n The Honors-in-Major Program is offered to interested junior nursing students who achieve a minimum grade-point average of 3.75 in NURS courses and cumulative GPA of 3.4 at the end of the sophomore year in nursing and/or junior nursing students who are members of the University Honors Program. A total of 18 credits taken at the honors level is required for the Honors-in-Major Program. Orientation to the Honors-in-Major Program is held at the beginning of junior nursing year. In addition to NURS 641 (see: /search/?P=NURS%20641) Translating Research for Practice, 4 credits taken at the honors level, students must successfully complete with a grade of B or better 8 additional credits of honors coursework drawn from the following courses:\n \n \n \n Course List\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Code\n \n Title\n \n Credits\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Select two courses from the following:\n \n NURS 612 (see: /search/?P=NURS%20612)Care of the Adult with Acute Illness II4\n \n NURS 627 (see: /search/?P=NURS%20627)Clinical Judgment in Nursing4\n \n NURS 705 (see: /search/?P=NURS%20705)Contemporary Leadership within Health Care Systems4\n \n \n \n \n \n Honors-in-major students must also successfully complete with a grade of B or better:\n \n \n \n Course List\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Code\n \n Title\n \n Credits\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n NURS 794W (see: /search/?P=NURS%20794W)Special Topics1\n \n NURS 797W (see: /search/?P=NURS%20797W)Honors Thesis1\n \n NURS 797W (see: /search/?P=NURS%20797W)Honors Thesis4\n \n Total Credits6\n \n \n \n These self-directed learning experiences, related to the student's interests, are designed to help students acquire advanced knowledge and skills to undertake inquiry or scholarly projects.
