The nursing program at Trevecca Nazarene University functions as a part of the Partners in Nursing Consortium and is offered as a partnership between Trevecca Nazarene University (TNU) and Belmont University’s School of Nursing. Students enroll at Trevecca Nazarene University which provides the pre-nursing general education and prerequisite courses necessary for success in Belmont’s nursing curriculum. The nursing curriculum is provided by Belmont University School of Nursing’s faculty. Students participate in classes at both campuses throughout their nursing curriculum.
The Partners in Nursing partnership’s purpose is to prepare professional nurses for practice and service in a variety of health care settings. The student’s education in the liberal arts, sciences, and nursing enable the graduate to contribute to improving the quality of life for self, clients and community. Students completing the program of studies are prepared to continue life-long learning, including graduate studies.
The objectives for Partners in Nursing are to
- Educate and graduate significant numbers of students in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) programs
- Assist the partner institutions in meeting their own institutional gals and serving their constituents.
To accomplish these goals, Belmont University and Trevecca Nazarene University partner together such that nursing courses for the TNU program are provided by Belmont University’s School of Nursing. The mission and educational goals of Trevecca Nazarene University are congruent with that of Belmont University Schools of Nursing.
