Welcome to Excellence

This website introduces you to the College of Nursing within the context of the University of Nebraska Medical Center. For both, there is but one standard - constant, uncompromising excellence.

Long known for its academic reputation, the UNMC College of Nursing in the past few years has made dramatic strides forward in facilities, faculty, curriculum, research programs, learning technologies, clinical practice initiatives and global educational partnerships.

Our journey to excellence will accelerate. Let me be clear: We intend, in short order, to be in the very top tier of U.S. nursing schools.

Likewise, UNMC has become an international destination for top-flight educators, students, researchers, physicians, nurses and other health care professionals - as well as for patients seeking rare, highly advanced, life-saving medical services. The UNMC campus is 500 miles wide, serving communities across Nebraska and beyond with premier education, research and practice programs.

Students, faculty, staff, donors and research funders alike are drawn to the best. If you're among them, welcome to a world-class health science center – and to an extraordinary nursing program. For more information – or to arrange a tour – please call toll-free
