Why Tulane?

Your Nursing Degree Carries the Power of Tulane

 

Tulane students are on the front lines of life-changing technologies, as well as hometown heroes. Tulanians see challenges as opportunities, and strive to improve the lives of others in our own community and around the globe. That’s Tulane Nursing.

Couple Tulane’s passion for the community with a renowned School of Medicine and you begin to see how Tulane can bring something different to the table for Nursing students. Imagine nursing students and medical students working side-by-side with standardized patients, using simulations to develop unprecedented communication and collaboration skills between future doctors and nurses.

Tulane's Nursing Program is Built on Three Pillars

 

 

Tulane has a history and mission of service. The school includes historic Uptown and Downtown campuses that provide complete undergraduate support services. You become part of a network of students, faculty and alumni that are available for you at every step of your journey. Your faculty is Tulane faculty. Your degree is a Tulane degree. Your education is world-class.

 

The School of Medicine (SOM) shares the University’s mission to improve the health of communities with a positive, inclusive, and professional learning environment. SOM’s robust research and clinical resources are made stronger by our partnership with LCMC Health. Your Tulane degree makes you part of an established team of healthcare professionals working in some of the largest and newest facilities in New Orleans and across Louisiana.

 

The School of Professional Advancement (SoPA), Tulane’s dedicated school for working adults students, serves as the admission gateway to the new BSN program. Much like SoPA administers Bachelor and Masters degrees in Legal Studies, Health & Wellness, Exercise Science and Homeland Security, SoPA is the link between you and a Tulane BSN degree.

Only in New Orleans

Tulane students have easy access to the Crescent City's vast cultural offerings. New Orleans is defined by its distinct museums, music venues, art galleries, and restaurants. The city hosts scores of annual festivals including Jazz Fest and, of course, Mardi Gras. There are also plenty of outdoor opportunities in the area – fishing, horseback riding, golfing, and the 350-acre Audubon Park across the street from campus, to name a few. These are some of the characteristics that define life in our remarkable city.
