At UC College of Nursing, we know nurses do more than care for patients — they lead teams, advance research, shape policies and drive innovation in healthcare.
For more than 130 years, we have shaped nurses who blend compassion, critical thinking, evidence-based practice and clinical expertise to master both the art and science of care.
Whether you are just beginning your nursing journey or advancing your career, your path to purpose starts here.

UC prepared me to excel clinically and taught me the value of mentorship, education and community. Through the DEU program, studying abroad in Thailand and immersive simulation labs, I gained unique opportunities I wouldn't have had otherwise.

Every nursing student’s journey includes a mentor who helps transform theory into practice. In hospitals, clinics, and community settings, preceptors provide hands-on guidance that helps students build confidence, refine clinical judgment, and develop the skills needed to care for patients independently. Each year, the University of Cincinnati College of Nursing recognizes outstanding clinical educators through its Outstanding Preceptor Awards. Nominated by the students they mentor, the awards honor two prelicensure preceptors and two advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) preceptors — one from the Greater Cincinnati region and one from outside the region —whose commitment to teaching has made an extraordinary impact on student learning and professional development.
