Nebraska Wesleyan University Nursing Welcome to our nursing page! Check this page for events, updates and pictures about our program! Welcome to Nebraska Wesleyan University Nursing!

Our program offers the following degrees: 4 year traditional Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), RN-BSN, Masters of Science in Nursing (MSN)- Education or Administration, and an MSN/MBA degree. Traditional BSN

The Nebraska Wesleyan University Pre-Licensure BSN program offers a traditional 4-year Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree combining clinical and foundational knowledge including

liberal arts courses to receive a more comprehensive education. RN-BSN

Registered Nurses who complete a Bachelors of Science Degree in Nursing from Wesleyan Advantage will receive more training in areas such as communication, leadership, and critical thinking, all of which are becoming more important as nursing practice becomes more complex. Additionally, a Wesleyan Advantage BSN will provide you with greater knowledge of health promotion, disease prevention, risk reduction, health assessment, illness and disease management, nursing theories, research, and evidence-based practice and community health. MSN

The Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree prepares students to be leaders in the field of nursing as nurse educators, administrators, and managers. The curriculum offers students a choice between two tracks: one focusing on the nurse as educator and one on the nurse as leader and manager. The MSN program is open to two career paths: those who have a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN to MSN) and those who are Registered Nurses (RN to MSN). Post Masters Certificate in Nursing

The Nebraska Wesleyan University Post Masters Certificate in Nursing program prepares nurses and nurse practitioners having an MSN degree to be a Nurse Educator or a Nurse Leader. With an MSN degree and the Post Masters Certificate in Nursing, you can work in research, public health, and advanced levels of nursing administration, as well as a nurse educator.

The 2025 NSNA 73rd Annual Convention was the perfect opportunity for NWU nursing students to learn from top nursing leaders as they prepared for their future nursing professions. Our NWU nursing students learned new skill sets and test-taking strategies while attending multiple educational sessions and met NSNA leaders like the Board of Directors.
Here are some photos from their time in Seattle, WA.

Congratulations to Dawson Schwerdtfeger, the recipient of the Daisy Award 2024.

"Nurses every day go above and beyond to not only provide patients and families with excellence in clinical care but also compassion. At The DAISY Foundation, we aim to honor them by showing our profound gratitude for all that they do. The DAISY Award is a recognition program to celebrate and recognize nurses by collecting nominations from patients, families, and co-workers. It is run by our partners as a way to thank nurses for the care and kindness they provide." Jhey Photo LLC
