The Reno Campus

In Reno, you can gain a well-rounded education that will prepare you for a successful healthcare career. Not only does this include hands-on exercises, but access to medical equipment as well as nursing simulation labs in the study of pediatrics, intensive care, and women’s wellness.

To accommodate our students, we maintain various classrooms, skills labs, computer labs, and resume workshop stations. In between classes, students can also spend their time in the campus lounge or library.

Hybrid Format

The virtual classroom experience is one of the many benefits of our BSN program. Since our curriculum is delivered in a “hybrid” format, you can enjoy both traditional and online classes. In fact, Reno BSN students have the option to take all their General Education courses online. Another special feature of the Reno campus is our world-class simulation center.

The simulation center contains high-fidelity simulators and sim-view technology, including a Medical Surgical Nursing Intensive Care Unit (ICU). It features two furnished patient rooms: one for Pediatrics with infant and child simulators, a crib, and a youth bed; the other includes a birthing simulator, a bassinet for newborns, and a delivery bed.
