Nursing is an essential part of the health care team, encompassing health promotion, illness prevention and care provision to people of all ages, in various health care and community settings. Knowledge and experience gained from a BSN program prepares nurses to provide exceptional care in the challenging health care environment and offers more opportunities for employment and advancement, as well as higher pay.

OSU provides nursing students with an experience grounded in research, preparing tomorrow’s nurse leaders and nurse scientists. Students develop critical thinking and clinical judgment through classes, extensive clinical experience and interdisciplinary collaboration.
