The purpose of the nursing curricula is to prepare an educated person and contributing citizen to function as a competent, caring practitioner of nursing.
The Baccalaureate Nursing Program at Indiana State University admitted its first class of students in September 1963. Currently, the program is housed in two nursing departments within the School of Nursing in the College of Health and Human Services.
The traditional four-year campus-based baccalaureate degree nursing track and the accelerated 2nd degree track are administered through the Department of Baccalaureate Nursing. Distance education tracks for students entering the program with registered nurse licensure and for students entering with licensed practical nurse licensure are administered through the Department of Baccalaureate Nursing Completion.
The Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Nursing combines theory and clinical nursing courses, required support courses, and Foundational Studies courses.
The baccalaureate degree program is recognized as the basic preparation for professional nursing practice and prepares the graduate as a generalist. Baccalaureate graduates are prepared to provide direct and indirect nursing care. The graduate also is prepared as a communicator, educator, and advocate, and can assume beginning leadership roles.
Baccalaureate nursing education is foundational for graduate study in nursing.
In January 1986 a program of graduate nursing studies leading to a master of science degree was initiated. It is now housed in a third department, the Department of Advanced Practice Nursing, in the School of Nursing. The Department of Advanced Practice Nursing offers an MSN program with concentrations in Family Nurse Practitioner and Nurse Educator along with Post MS Certificates in the same. A Doctor of Nursing Practice program is also available. All graduate nursing programs are offered via distance education.
The mission of the Department of Baccalaureate Nursing is to develop students who are competent, caring nursing professionals, and productive citizens. This mission is accomplished through innovative teaching, experiential learning, research, and community and public service with traditional and non-traditional students in a campus-based setting.
The mission of the Department of Baccalaureate Nursing Completion is to develop competent, caring nursing professionals and productive citizens. This mission is accomplished through distance teaching modalities, experiential learning at the local level, research, and community and public service.
The mission of the Department of Advanced Practice Nursing is to develop competent, caring nursing professionals and productive citizens practicing in advanced nursing roles in clinical care, education, and leadership. This mission is accomplished through a variety of teaching modalities, experiential learning, research and/or the application of research findings, and community and public service.
