Venue description

Professional nursing is a lifetime career with limitless opportunities to care for others. As a nurse, students may choose to work in the high-technology area of intensive care, help bring newborn babies safely into the world, promote the health of families in the community, or meet the needs of the elderly. Students may even choose to work abroad meeting the health needs of under-served populations. What students choose to do in nursing will reflect the concern for fellow human beings. The College of Nursing will build upon its tradition of developing caring and scholarly leaders who positively impact contemporary and future health care. The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh College Of Nursing can enable students to meet their educational and career goals through its dynamic curriculum. Following three semesters of general education and science, students are eligible for admission into the College of Nursing program. Building on a strong science foundation, the College of Nursing prepares the student with theoretical knowledge and clinical practice in many areas including medical, surgical, pediatrics, obstetrics, mental health, and community health nursing. The curriculum prepares nurses to care for people with illnesses and injuries while focusing on wellness, health promotion, and disease prevention.
