Develop Professionally

As a nursing student, you can join IUPUC’s chapter of the National Student Nurses Association (NSNA). With a membership of 60,000 students across the U.S., NSNA facilitates the professional development of future RNs with educational resources, career resources, scholarships, and more.

To ensure you are ready for a career as an RN, you must take the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) as a capstone experience to your studies. Passing the exam demonstrates your competence and preparation to apply for state licensure so you can begin your nursing practice.

  

Nursing

Take the first step toward a rewarding career and discover your true potential with an Indiana University Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree.

Whether you are a traditional student who is just beginning your nursing education—or you are a licensed registered nurse with an associate degree or nursing diploma from an NLNAC- or CCNE-accredited institution—you can take your career to the next professional level with a BSN degree from one of the nation's top nursing programs.

An IU degree in nursing will give you the personal and professional satisfaction that comes from making a real difference in the lives of sick, injured, and recovering children and adults. It will also give you the education you need to provide preventative care that helps ensure patients of all ages stay healthy and well.

A nursing career is also a great investment in your future. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that nursing jobs will “grow 26 percent from 2010 to 2020, faster than the average for all occupations.” The prospects are even better for registered nurses with a BSN.

Degrees with Distinction

Don’t earn just any nursing degree. When you become part of the nursing program at IUPUC, you join the Indiana University School of Nursing, the largest school of its kind in the nation and one of the most respected multiprogram nursing schools in the world.

Three Programs from Which to Choose

You can choose from three courses of nursing study on our Columbus campus:

  1. The traditional Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program is designed for students who wish to enter the nursing field for the first time.
  2. The RN to BSN program is designed for licensed registered nurses (RNs) who hold an associate degree (ASN) or a nursing diploma from an NLNAC-accredited institution. This face-to-face program combines classroom, simulation, clinical experience, and web-based instruction.
  3. The statewide RN to BSN program is an online BSN completion program featuring courses taught by expert IU nursing faculty on campuses across the state.
