Replace courses in the BS
in Nursing Program |
|
This request is to revise the names of three courses
in the RN-BSN program of study. When the previous APC-3

but not the prelicensure curriculum plan. When the prelicensure
curriculum plan was complete, three of the proposed course
names required changes. The new names apply to courses
already approved by the Faculty Association CHANGE NUR
4XXX, Community and Social Policy (3 cr.); NUR 4XXXC,
Clinical V (2 cr.); NUR 4XXX, Transition Concepts (2 cr.)
TO NUR 4XXX, Community Partnerships (3 cr.); NUR 4XXXL,
Community Nursing Practice (2 cr.); NUR 4XXX, Role Transition
(2 cr.). No new faculty needed. No resources needed.
