Overview

The Nursing program from Georgia State University is built on a strong foundation of liberal arts education that includes mathematics, sciences, language arts, social sciences, as well as theoretical and clinical nursing practice.

The program is designed to be completed in eight academic semesters. The first four semesters are comprised of University System of Georgia Core curriculum and prerequisites for nursing majors.

The final four semesters are centered on the nursing major curriculum and relevant electives. Students learn the essentials of nursing care in the classroom, nursing lab, simulation centers, clinical facilities and community-based agencies. Through the program students build clinical judgment skills by incorporating theoretical knowledge and nursing practice skills in simulated and real world clinical situations.

Careers

As one of the oldest and largest professions in health care, nursing is a critical component of patient care. Nurses are patients’ primary caregivers and represent independent and collaborative care of individuals, families and communities. Nurses are lifelong caregivers seeing patients throughout their lifespan in illness and health. In an evolving health care system, the role of nurses has become more exciting, challenging and demanding.

Nurses can work in a variety of settings such as hospitals, clinics, agencies and schools, and our nursing students rotate through many of these settings during the degree program. Nursing students graduate with many contacts in healthcare organizations, and many even find employment before graduation.

Accreditation

The College of Nursing is fully approved by the Georgia Board of Nursing and the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE), a national accreditation agency for schools of nursing.
