Compassionate care. Clinical excellence.
ECU’s Department of Nursing offers a rigorous, eight-semester Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program designed for pre-licensure students.

Successful candidates become licensed Registered Nurses (RNs) ready to serve in hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, and community health settings.
