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; 50 percent 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 185 graduate and 400 undergraduate nursing students—diverse in age, background, ethnicity, and gender—our classes are small and our faculty members are accessible.

University at Buffalo offers:

  • Nationally ranked graduate program
  • Preparation for tomorrow's community-based nursing
  • Faculty who practice what they teach
  • Nearly 250 clinical placement sites
  • The No. 10 "most wired" university

Bachelor of Science in Nursing Programs

The BS program prepares generalist nurses to work in a variety of health-care settings and meet the diverse needs of individuals and families across the life span and among all community groups. The early phase of the program combines liberal arts with biomedical and social sciences. Upper-division courses focus on the knowledge and skills required to provide comprehensive nursing care in various clinical practice settings, ethical/legal dimensions of the health-care system, pharmacological components of care, nursing research, and principles and techniques of management within a health-system context. We offer four different programs for obtaining a BS degree:

Basic BS Program

This program provides the curriculum required for a freshman or transfer student who is pursuing a nursing degree for the first time.

Accelerated BS Program

The accelerated second-degree program offers the undergraduate nursing curriculum as an intensive, full-time, 12-month program designed for the mature, highly motivated, career-minded student who has already completed at least an undergraduate degree in a field other than nursing.

RN/BS Program

This track provides the curriculum needed by students who have completed an associate's degree or diploma program in nursing.
