Wichita State University is launching its first class for its Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program on the Kansas State University campus.
The WSU nursing program is part of the Pathway to Nursing program with K-State, a dual-degree program that gives students the opportunity to first earn a Bachelor of Science degree from K-State, and then a Bachelor of Science degree in nursing from WSU. This is the first dual degree program between WSU and K-State, and the first and only BSN program in Kansas located at two state universities.
The WSU nursing program at K-State was approved by the Kansas Board of Nursing in March 2022. The facilities in K-State’s Justin Hall were renovated and equipped with new nursing simulation technology and equipment.
A total of 20 students are accepted into the program each semester. This program will increase the number of bachelor’s-prepared registered nurses in Kansas and help address the region’s nursing shortage.
Visit the WSU and K-State Pathway to Nursing Program website for more information about the program.
