Professional Practice, Christ-Centered Care
You have the empathy and passion for health needed for a career in nursing. At North Greenville University, you’ll develop the skills and knowledge needed to provide quality, ethical patient care and gain an understanding of God’s creation and the complexity of life found in the simplicity of God’s design.
While NGU does not offer a formal nursing or pre-Nursing program, we do offer a limited-seat dual degree program with Mary Black School of Nursing at USC Upstate. The program is designed to award students two bachelor’s degrees in 5 years: a Bachelor of Science in Health Science from NGU and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from USC Upstate.
What Can I Do with a Dual Bachelor’s Degree in Biology and Nursing?
A dual bachelor’s degree in biology and nursing opens up diverse career options in healthcare. You can become a registered nurse, working in hospitals, clinics, or community health settings, providing direct patient care. Alternatively, your biology background can lead to specialized roles such as a clinical research coordinator, where you assist in medical research or clinical trials.
Moreover, this unique combination can qualify you for healthcare management roles, allowing you to oversee healthcare facilities or work in healthcare policy development. Your dual degree provides a strong foundation for a versatile and rewarding career in the healthcare field.
