Eastern Florida to Offer Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing in 2018

Eastern Florida State College will offer a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing in 2018 to help meet a critical need for more Registered Nurses along the Space Coast and in Florida.

The program was approved earlier this week by the State Board of Education in Tallahassee, paving the way for the College to launch the four-year degree.

“This is a very important program because it will give graduates excellent career opportunities as the local and regional demand for more Registered Nurses keeps growing,” said College President Dr. Jim Richey.

“It also furthers the key role the College is playing in helping educate a new generation of health care professionals and meeting vital workforce needs in our community.”
