The RN-B.S.N. option is designed to offer registered nurses the opportunity to build on their nursing knowledge and experience by earning a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Students in the RN-B.S.N. option take courses that focus on professionalism and patient safety, research, improvement of health systems, leadership, information technology, and community and public health. The RN-B.S.N. option allows registered nurses to earn a B.S.N. degree via flexible online education that is delivered primarily asynchronously with limited synchronous face-to-face assemblies for the gerontology and public health practicum experiences as well as the capstone seminar.

The RN-B.S.N. program option requires 33 semester hours of major study. The prospective RN-B.S.N. student must hold an active, unencumbered registered nursing license in their state of residence and have been conferred on an Associate Degree or Diploma in Nursing from a nationally accredited nursing program. Prospective students must complete the prerequisite course work before beginning work.
