Bouvé’s nursing program provides the knowledge, skills, and professional values you will need for successful practice, and helps you understand the complexities of health and illness across the life span. Clinicals will help you hone your skills in this profession, as well.

Nursing students’ courses in basic sciences such as anatomy and physiology, chemistry, and nutrition explain how the body functions and the effects of health and disease. Behavioral sciences courses, including psychology, and sociology, extends the understanding of behavior. Arts and humanities courses show different perspectives and how to communicate effectively. Finally, the study of mathematics, statistics, and computers help students quantify and manage information.

Students are introduced to their first clinical experience as sophomores.  As a middlers, students help restore health to children and adults who have been hospitalized with serious illnesses, who have had surgery, or who require high-tech medical interventions. Junior-level courses focus on the mental and public health needs of the community. At the senior level, students learn the skills of management and leadership, so that in their final nursing course, they can work one-on-one with an experienced nurse in the clinical setting of their choice.

By the time their senior year is completed, Bouvé nursing students will be ready to face the challenges and experience the satisfaction of an exciting career in professional nursing.
