Nursing program gets accreditation
- Share via
Just a month away from their graduation, three dozen of UCI’s first nursing school graduates just learned their program is now nationally accredited, university officials announced Tuesday.
The Program in Nursing Science now has an accredited bachelor’s of science program thanks to the Commission of Collegiate Nursing Education, the commission assigned to ensure quality and integrity in university nursing education programs, officials said.
UCI’s nursing science program was established in 2005 in the university’s College of Health Sciences and has 160 students. The 36 set to graduate next month are the school’s first out of the program.
