The mission of the SON is to provide a 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.

Program Goals

• Prepare graduates who are guided by ethical principles and professional standards of 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.

Upon successful completion of the program, graduates are awarded the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree and are eligible to sit for the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN). After successfully passing the NCLEX exam, graduates are eligible for licensure.
