The basic nursing curriculum consists of a planned progression of courses that build upon previous knowledge and develop skills at increasing levels of competence. The lower division nursing and the science courses are prerequisite to the junior-level nursing courses. Throughout the curriculum, concepts relating to the promotion of health, care during illness, and long-term care are developed. Also emphasized are the nurse’s roles in research, advocacy, teaching, change, and management.
Note: It is expected that a new curriculum will be implemented in the academic year 2009-2010.
Admission requirements
Qualified graduates of high schools (or individuals with equivalent preparation or qualified transfer students) may enroll in this four-year basic professional nursing curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Science degree. Applicants must also meet the criteria for admission to Adelphi.
