Connect to Your Future
Learning online may not feel like a traditional college experience because it’s not. The curriculum mirrors that of an on-campus program and the professors are the same. But online learning gives you more say in how earning your degree fits into your already busy life. You determine how to balance your online program with work, family and other commitments. BenU gives you all the student support and career-related services you’d find on campus. Connecting to your future online may be the best choice for you.
Answer the Demand for Nurses
Today, more nurses than ever are obtaining a bachelor’s degree. A bachelor’s degree equips nurses with skills crucial to keeping up with fast-moving innovations in the field. A BSN helps qualify you to work in magnet hospitals, which are recognized for nursing excellence and superior patient outcomes.
With your BSN, you will have access to employment opportunities including positions as a nurse case manager, nursing manager, clinical nurse manager and registered nurse supervisor, as well as other leadership roles. Your BSN is also a prerequisite for acceptance into an MSN or Nurse Practitioner program, two paths to upper tier nursing careers.
