Overview

The Bachelor of Nursing degree courses at Houston Christian University have clinical experiences in all of the major hospitals in the Texas Medical Center and in numerous community health sites. In addition, most hospitals in the area offer opportunities for students to be selected for work-study nursing programs. Approximately 10 students per school are selected, and hired by the hospital, and they work about 24 hours per month.

Students are paid for their work and receive scholarship support from the institution for their nursing education. Students study intensive care nursing at Memorial Hermann Hospital, one of the nation’s leading trauma and burn centers. During this study, they eyewitness the operation of Life Flight and the Shock Trauma ICU.

The nursing shortage has created numerous career opportunities for registered nurses, including specialty care units such as neonatal intensive care units, pediatric and adult ICUs, ORs, post-anesthesia care units, labor and delivery, and postpartum. In the community, there are nursing jobs available for school nurses, in clinics providing care for vulnerable populations such as persons with cancer, AIDS/HIV, homeless and the elderly, and in hospitals caring for persons with organ transplants, burns, and trauma. Some nursing school graduates with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) have gone into research, while those who enjoy technology and computers can enter the world of nursing informatics.
