College of Nursing
While today’s presentation will highlight current trends and look toward the future of the College of Nursing, a number of changes have occurred since the last presentation to the Board of Governors in June, 2015. A few of these are highlighted below:
The Mission and Vision Statements of the College have been revised to align with
the overall Mission and Vision of the University.
The College’s publications and marketing materials have been revised to highlight the College’s unique strengths and reflect the College’s distinctive focus on issues of urban health and health equity.
Two new pathways to the Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing have been added:
o Freshmen admission for a limited number of high-achieving applicants leading to a four-year path to degree
o A federal grant-supported specialized accelerated pathway for veterans
WSU graduates continue to surpass the national average for first-time pass rates
on the national nursing licensure exam.
Graduate program rankings have increased dramatically and these programs have
received high profile national awards.
Overall, external research and training grant funding has increased by 25%. Most importantly, we reversed a ten-year trend of declining research funding, increasing by 3009% in 3 years.
Enrollment continues to be robust, with overall enrollment increasing by 26.2% since Fall 2015. Most importantly, we reversed an eight-year trend of declining enrollment in our graduate programs, with graduate program enrollment growth of 21.7% since Fall 2015.
The mission of the College of Nursing is to create and
translate knowledge and to educate a diverse student body
prepared to excel as clinicians, scholars, and leaders who
improve health in local and global communities.
