The University at Buffalo School of Nursing

The School of Nursing began in the 1930s and is now ranked in the top third of the nation's nursing schools and the region's only nursing program connected with a multidisciplinary health science center. Our undergraduate and graduate programs emphasize the acquisition of clinical nursing expertise. Students develop their ability to make decisions, practice creatively and imaginatively, and cope with change in a climate of scholarship, discovery, and professional example. Graduates are prepared for beginning and advanced professional nursing practice grounded in millennial knowledge in a discipline that focuses on interdisciplinary collaboration, critical thinking, and innovation.

The curriculum ensures interaction with faculty in one-to-one mentoring, small group classes, conferences, and electronic media, as well as in traditional lectures. Faculty are nationally and internationally recognized for publications, presentations, and service; two-thirds are doctorally prepared. The School of Nursing has clinical affiliations with Western New York's major health-care facilities.

Because we are committed to our students, we have made our programs and class schedules very flexible. We offer a wide range of programs, with many are available on a full or part-time basis. With approximately 200 graduate and 450 undergraduate nursing students—diverse in age, background, ethnicity, and gender—our classes are small and our faculty members are accessible.

University at Buffalo offers:

• Preparation for tomorrow's community-based nursing
• Faculty who practice what they teach
• Over 250 clinical placement sites
