Vision

The MSOE School of Nursing (SON) aspires to excellence in educating nurses who impact society as expert practitioners, leaders and scholars.

Mission

The mission of the SON is to provide an undergraduate program that educates its graduates to address the diagnosis and treatment of human responses to health states. It does this through the integration of technology into nursing practice, with the goal of improving the health of society.

The SON builds on these concepts to help graduate, develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to provide safe, effective, high quality client-centered care as members of a complex, continuously evolving health care system.

Program Goals

  • Educate men and women for practice as nursing generalists
  • Educate men and women to serve the nursing needs of a diverse global community
  • Educate men and women who are prepared to engage in graduate study
  • Prepare graduates who can critically reflect on their nursing practice and evaluate the effects of their nursing care
  • Prepare graduates who are guided by ethical principles and standards of professional care

The Ruehlow Nursing Complex houses the School of Nursing labs and Simulation Center. Clinical experiences occur in a variety of hospitals and health care agencies in Milwaukee and surrounding communities.
