Since its creation in 1964 as a department under the College of Health and Physical Education and later the College of Human Development (now Health and Human Development), Penn Stateโs Nursing program has evolved into a nationally respected program. In 2008, Nursing became a free-standing academic program under the College of Health and Human Development umbrella. In 2013, Penn Stateโs Board of Trustees approved the School of Nursing to become Penn Stateโs newest fully independent College, a position that provided greater visibility and elevated its status concerning peer nursing programs at other universities.
Today, the college provides students with a wide array of nursing programs across 12 Penn State Commonwealth Campuses. The college offers bachelorโs, masterโs, and doctoral programs to more than 2,000 students annually. The college also offers certification and training online, which allows the college to extend its offerings to students throughout Pennsylvania and improve the health and well-being of all citizens within the Commonwealth.
