Bachelor in Krankenpflege

Baccalaureate preparation in nursing is the basic educational level for entry into professional nursing practice, building on knowledge acquired from the humanities, biological, physical, social, and behavioral sciences. The Lees-McRae Nursing program provides foundational education through both academic and professional nursing courses that support the provision of patient-centered, safe, quality care in today’s health care industry settings.

Under the guidance of expert nursing faculty, you will be provided opportunities to gain relevant, hands-on experience and challenged to develop understanding and critical thinking that will support your success as a professional nurse. Our smaller class sizes facilitate close student-faculty relationships where students and faculty know each other by name. Clinical student-faculty ratios of 8:1 facilitate quality engagement and support in the 1,100 hours spent in the clinical setting.

We have one mission: Lees-McRae educates and inspires students to approach life and work from a creative, collaborative, and critical perspective in preparation for diverse careers and environments. Through common ambition, we maintain our focus on the needs of all learners—residential on the main campus and degree completion through our online programs. Some are athletes, some are in the honors program, and some are working while returning to school. Regardless of where you are and where you want to go, our expert faculty and committed staff will help you get there.
