Apex Trust Nursing College, subscribes to the land-grant philosophy and its tripartite mission including outreach that bridges the areas of teaching, research, and service. The College provides leadership for the education of nurses at the undergraduate level who practice within an integrated, dynamic, and diverse health care system. All faculty members are committed to scholarship in teaching, research, service, and practice.
The goal of professional nursing education is to promote competence and leadership in evidence-based nursing practice, scholarship, and research spanning from the community to the international level. Nursing education is a lifelong process that applies the concepts and theories from nursing, the humanities, and the natural and behavioral sciences. Learning is most effective when individual learner needs are considered, and active learner participation is facilitated. This objective is best accomplished in an atmosphere that promotes educational access and respect for diversity.
The beginning practitioner of nursing, a caring professional, skilled clinician, effective communicator, and clinical scholar who promotes the well-being of individuals, families, and populations in health and illness, is awarded the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.Sc. Nursing). |
