Program Overview

Program Description

The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) is a four-and-a-half-year program that provides students with a strong foundation in nursing science, healthcare technology, and evidence-based practice. Our curriculum integrates theoretical knowledge with clinical experience in diverse healthcare settings, preparing graduates to deliver holistic, patient-centered care across the lifespan.

The program follows a progressive approach where students initially develop fundamental nursing competencies before advancing to specialized areas of practice. Through supervised clinical rotations in hospitals, community health centers, and specialized care facilities, students gain hands-on experience that reinforces classroom learning and fosters critical thinking skills.

Our BSN program is designed to meet both national standards and international healthcare demands, with special emphasis on developing culturally sensitive practitioners who can adapt to diverse healthcare environments both locally and globally.
