Study for a Bachelor of Science in Nursing
Degree at Kaplan University
RN to B.S. in Nursing:
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree is widely
considered a standard requirement for registered nurses (R.N.s)
seeking broader professional responsibilities and career
opportunities. Kaplan University's Bachelor of Science in
Nursing program enables R.N.s to complete the education needed
to enhance their skills to better meet the demands of patient
care and qualify for new opportunities in specialized nursing
and management fields. A bachelor’s degree in nursing is
essential for those serving in case manager and supervisory
positions, and the program is also an excellent foundation for
those wishing to pursue graduate nursing studies.
Kaplan University's degree program offers an accredited,
R.N.-to-B.S.N. degree completion program that centers around
health promotion, risk reduction, disease prevention,
information and health care technologies, ethics, human
diversity, management theory, and health care system and
policies. A defining feature of the curriculum is its increased
focus on leadership. The program features a capstone course, a
requisite clinical course, and a professional development plan.
Disclosure: The Bachelor of Science in Nursing program is
regionally accredited by NCA and has interim approval from the
Iowa Board of Nursing.
This program is not one hundred percent online: a lab will need
to be completed and students must also participate in a
clinical. The lab and clinical are required and will need to be
completed in the state of licensure. BSN students are subject to
these and additional policies published in the Nursing Student
Handbook.
Who Should Take This Program?
This program is for registered nurses who want to complete their
bachelor's degree to prepare for health care leadership
positions and gain the educational foundation needed for the
pursuit of graduate studies in nursing. You may have prior work
experience or course credits that can be transferred toward your
degree.
