A Strong Foundation

A Foundation for Professional Nursing Practice

The Department of Nursing at Waynesburg University embraces the concept of caring as the basis for theory, practice, and research in professional nursing education at the baccalaureate level.

At Waynesburg University, caring is taught within the context of a liberal arts education, which helps students to broaden their worldview and examine where their profession fits within our society.

You will find that our nursing program’s philosophy of caring is a natural fit with the University's tradition of volunteer service and making a difference in the lives of others.

Waynesburg University fosters the attitude that learning is a life-long experience. The nurse prepared with a liberal arts and professional nursing education will be better equipped to think critically, to think creatively, and to lead.
