RN-to-BSN
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing is widely considered a standard requirement for registered nurses (RNs) seeking broader professional responsibilities and career opportunities. Kaplan University's BSN program is designed to enable RNs 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 a strong foundation for those wishing to pursue graduate nursing studies.†
The curriculum emphasizes 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 that includes career planning.
