CURRICULUM OVERVIEW
Graduation requirements
A minimum of 123 hours is required for graduation,
of which 40 hours must be in upper-division coursework.
In addition the 30 hours earned immediately before
graduation must be completed through Bowling
Green State University uninterrupted by coursework
at another university or college.
University requirements
Each student is required to complete ENG 112
or demonstrate a proficiency in written expression
equivalent to that attained by students who
have completed the course. A penalty is imposed
if ENG 112 is not completed within the first
60 hours. (See Academic Policies.) RN students
must take or transfer in equivalent to math
as demonstrated by a competency examination
score above 095 level.
Required supportive courses
Additional required credit hours exclusive
of the major include PSYC 310; either PSYC
270, SOC 369 or MATH 115; PHIL 102; F&N
207 and computer course.
The curriculum for nursing students is based
on Orem's self-care deficit theory in nursing.
Person-centered approaches to nursing care
focus on helping people to increase their
abilities to promote, maintain or restore
their own health while also involving the
family and community. Critical thinking and
decision-making are integral components of
the curriculum.
The nursing program is nationally accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education and has full approval of the Ohio Board of Nursing. The nursing courses and clinical experiences are provided by the College of Nursing at the University of Toledo Health Science Campus located in Toledo.

Special Considerations
Fees for the nursing program are the same
as for all other degree programs at BGSU.
However, there are additional charges for
required professional liability insurance,
physical examinations, specific health tests,
laboratory fees and workbooks.
Students are expected to arrange for their
own transportation to and from the clinical
agencies.
