Division of Nursing
Welcome to McKendree University Division of Nursing. We are proud of our nursing programs. We have locations throughout Illinois and Kentucky, as well as e-learning course options. Graduates from the McKendree University nursing program excel in oral and written communication skills, as well as gain an in-depth knowledge regarding current nursing practice.
The Division of Nursing has two programs - a BSN completion program and a MSN program. The BSN completion program builds on the Associate/Diploma education. The MSN program has two tracks to chose from, a Nurse Educator track and a Nurse Manager/Administration track. The Nurse Educator track is designed for nurses who desire to teach nurses or patients within the clinical setting. The Nurse Management/Administration track is designed for those nurses seeking a leadership position in the field of nursing.
The McKendree Nursing faculty and staff are committed to assisting our nursing students. Please feel free to contact us for more information. We look forward to meeting you. Not only am I the chair of the division of nursing, I also teach in the program, and I am proud to say that I am a 1993 McKendree University BSN graduate!
