Nursing Professionals: Meeting the Challenge


Few professions demand as much from an individual as nursing. In addition to advocating for health promotion, a nurse often deals with patients in crisis, operates in a highly-charged and dynamic work environment, serves as the center of a team of health-care providers, and responds daily to critical intellectual challenges and physical demands.

NurseThe Globe University/Minnesota School of Business Bachelor of Science in Nursing program provides students with the academic support, practical experience and professional mentoring they need to enter the field of nursing, providing high-quality patient care and professional leadership.

  • Writing and reading skills at a scholarly level
  • The ability to make sound decisions, based on rational assessment
  • The ability to provide leadership in a chaotic environment
  • A strong ethical base, a compassionate nature, discretion and a commitment to service
  • The finely developed sense of attention to detail that is akin to intuitive ability
