The Taylor University Bachelor of Science in nursing prepares entry-level graduates to become servant-leaders who minister with compassion to a world in need. Students are prepared to provide holistic nursing care for individuals, families, communities, and populations across the continuum of care in a variety of healthcare settings.
Our vision is that Taylor University would be the leading Christ-centered, student-focused university, committed to carrying the light and faith of Christ to a world in need.
Taylor University School of Nursing believes that the foundation of nursing care rests upon an education that is whole-person focused, Biblically anchored, liberal arts grounded, Christ-centered, faith and learning integrated, world engaging, and servant-leader motivated. Our philosophy encompasses the integration of faith and professional practice, aiming to cultivate nurses who excel in clinical expertise and embody Christ-like virtues in their interactions with patients, families, communities, populations, and peers.
We believe that nursing care is whole-person focused. We emphasize a holistic approach to nursing that attends to the physical, emotional, spiritual, and social dimensions of each person. By acknowledging every individual's inherent dignity and worth, our students are equipped to provide care that addresses the multifaceted needs of individuals, families, communities, and populations.
We are a Biblically anchored learning community who are committed to the application of Scripture through compassionate service. We instill in students a deep sense of compassion, urging them to serve others with humility, empathy, and love. This commitment forms the cornerstone of our nursing education, encouraging students to approach their profession as a sacred vocation.
Liberal arts education prepares students with a foundation for knowledge acquisition, critical thinking skills, and an appreciation for life-long learning. Taylor University’s Foundational Core strengthens and supplements the nursing curriculum by connecting competencies in aesthetic literacy, writing, speaking, mathematics, literature, computation, cross-cultural experiences, stewardship of the body, scripture engagement, and natural and social sciences.
Guided by a Christ-centered faith, we prioritize ethical integrity in all aspects of nursing practice. We emphasize the importance of moral discernment, human dignity, and advocacy for those most vulnerable in society. By grounding students with a strong ethical foundation, we prepare them to navigate the complex healthcare system with wisdom, integrity, and respect.
We believe in the continuous life-long integration of faith and knowledge. Our nursing curriculum fosters intellectual curiosity, critical thinking, and professional growth, encouraging students to explore the intersection of faith, science, and health care. Engaging in reflective practices, graduates are equipped to contribute to the advancement of nursing knowledge, obtain optimal health outcomes, and continuously improve the healthcare system while remaining steadfast in their Christian faith.
Rooted in a commitment to serve a world in need, we actively engage with local and global communities through service-learning experiences along with collaborative interprofessional teams. By immersing students in diverse cultural contexts and underserved populations, we prepare students to address health disparities through compassionate care and advocacy.
We model servant leadership within all relationships, acknowledging the unity and diversity of others in Christ as evidenced by a lifestyle of service and concern for others. Servant leadership permeates all experiences in the nursing curriculum to prompt students in the development of this mindset.
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing program is dedicated to preparing compassionate, competent, and ethically responsible future nurses. By integrating faith, service, and excellence, we strive to transform lives, strengthen communities, and serve others through the art and science of nursing.
