Nurses are the lifeblood and connective tissue of health care. Our profession has evolved over time to adapt to fluctuating health care landscapes, but the biggest changes are still to come—and nursing is positioned to grow and lead the transformation of health care.
For over 130 years, we have been preparing a diverse, culturally competent group of nurses to provide all patients with the best care possible and to serve our community as responsible, compassionate caregivers and leaders in the nursing profession.

Pursuing my RN to BSN at UC empowered me to think of myself as part of the team and a potential leader. I feel energized and excited about my future in nursing as I can apply for leadership positions I would never have applied for before. UC has provided me with the skills to be successful in potential leadership job opportunities.
