Academics
Transforming health and health systems through service, discovery and knowledge, the College of Nursing prepares students to provide patient-centered care for all, including an emphasis on the underserved and most vulnerable populations of Texas.
Customized academic opportunities
The College of Nursing provides balanced and specialized degree programs at the undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate level tailored to meet the needs of new and experienced nurses. Our graduates have the opportunity to advance their education through clinical experience, simulated training with standardized patients and interdisciplinary collaborations with the Texas A&M University System and beyond.
"College of Nursing faculty bring expertise in simulation development, evaluation of nursing competencies and development of teaching/learning activities appropriate to the individual learning needs and styles of our students."

Continuing and Professional Education
Innovations in nursing science, patient care and technology require nurses to continually pursue professional development opportunities that expand their knowledge and skills. We are proud to offer high-quality continuing education on current health care topics to help praciticing nurses keep pace with the rapidly changing health care landscape.
Academic Initiatives
Vulnerable populations
With initiatives to eliminate health disparities across Texas, Aggie nurses are providing patient-centered care where it is needed most: rural, underserved and vulnerable populations lacking immediate access to health care.
Health education and outreach
We are reducing the shortage of nurses, preparing the next generation of nurse educators and empowering health professionals through specialized training and community outreach initiatives.
Forensic nursing
Victims of intentional violence deserve trauma-informed care. We are leading the way in policy, patient advocacy and research to support patients, at their bedside and in court.
