Description

The Bachelor of Science in Nursing program at the University of Minnesota will prepare you for a rewarding career in nursing and provide you with a strong foundation for a wide range of professional nursing opportunities. Graduates are well-prepared to enter the nursing field or pursue graduate education leading to careers in teaching, research or advanced practice nursing.

Our mission: to generate knowledge and prepare nurse leaders who will create, lead, and participate in holistic efforts to improve the health of all people within the context of their environments.

Our vision: The School of Nursing envisions a world where nurses lead collaborative efforts to attain optimal health for all people.

The School of Nursing was founded in 1909 as the nation’s first continuously operated university-based school of nursing. The School offered a three-year program in which four students were enrolled. In 1919, a five-year program leading to a baccalaureate degree in nursing began. The shorter nondegree program continued until 1947.

The school celebrated 100 years of leading nursing and health innovation in 2009.
