The JoAnne Gay Dishman Department of Nursing faculty believe in preparing students to become competent graduates who provide quality nursing care to diverse populations in an ever-changing society. Personal, social, and professional strengths of the graduates are developed to form a basis for continued growth.

Nursing is based on the concepts of professional integrity, effective communication, active inquiry, and service to the community. The goals of nursing are to assist humanity in disease prevention, health promotion, health maintenance and restoration, and the support of death with dignity. Nursing utilizes a spirit of caring, interpersonal communication, critical thinking, and therapeutic interventions to contribute to the health of the individual and society. The responsibility of nurses is to utilize the nursing process to assist people to meet health care needs and to attain health-related goals. The faculty believe in the preparation of professional nurses for four major roles: member of the profession, provider of patient-centered care, patient safety advocate and member of the healthcare team.

Baccalaureate Degree graduates are prepared with a broad perspective and understanding of society, the environment, and people as diverse individuals, families, groups, and communities. Baccalaureate education incorporates a broad range of basic, behavioral and social sciences, communication and data analysis content to provide a strong foundation for future critical thinking and problem solving. A baccalaureate degree is the most common requirement for entry into graduate nursing education where nurses may further develop their professional roles to become nurse educators, researchers, administrators or advanced practice nurses.

Undergraduate pre-licensure nursing students meet course requirements through didactic courses, laboratory and simulation activities, and clinical experience in healthcare facilities under the supervision of university faculty.  Licensed Registered Nurses (R.N.s) in the articulation tracks and graduate program meet course requirements through didactic courses, laboratory activities, practicum and projects. Students are expected to adhere to rules and regulations of 91ÖÆƬ³§ and the various agencies to which they are assigned. Specific policies may be obtained from the Director of Undergraduate Nursing Studies.

Pre-licensure graduates must pass the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-R.N.) in order to receive licensure to practice professional nursing. Graduates will be required to meet criteria established by the Texas Board of Nursing (TBON) in order to take the NCLEX-R.N. examination.

The JoAnne Gay Dishman Department of Nursing offers two graduate tracks leading to the Master of Science in Nursing (M.S.N.) degree and one dual track in nursing and business. Persons seeking admission may pursue the degree on a full or part-time basis. Potential students who qualify with a high GPA and are graduates of a nationally accredited undergraduate program may have the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) or the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) waived in the admission process. A Post-Master's Certificate option is also available in Nursing Education and Nursing Administration. Applicants for the Post-Master's Certificate program must have a M.S.N. degree and meet additional entrance requirements.

91ÖÆƬ³§ nursing programs are fully accredited by the Texas Board of Nursing and the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN, 3343 Peachtree Road NE, Suite 500, Atlanta, Georgia 30326, phone 404.975.5000, fax 404.975.5020).

Director of Undergraduate Nursing Studies: Dr. Iva Hall 254 McFaddin-Ward Health Sciences Building

Degree Course Requirements - B.S.N.

Completion of the program leads to a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.S.N.) degree. Recipients of the degree are eligible to make application to take the NCLEX-R.N. exam to become a Registered Nurse (R.N.).

The baccalaureate program also provides an opportunity for Registered Nurses who wish to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree. This special track is called the R.N.-B.S.N. Articulation Track. Please refer to separate admission requirements in the appropriate section below.

Admission and Progression

Students seeking admission to the pre-licensure baccalaureate (B.S.N.) nursing program must submit an Application for Admission to Nursing. Admission to the nursing program is very competitive.

Students not enrolled at 91ÖÆƬ³§ must submit two separate applications: one for admission to Lamar (), and one for admission to the nursing program (obtained from the Nursing Information Center, Room 255, McFaddin-Ward Health Sciences Building or on the Forms page of the JoAnne Gay Dishman Department of Nursing website).

Applications for admission to the nursing programs must be received by March 1 prior to the Fall semester admission and September 1 for Spring semester admission. The following items must accompany the application:

  • Application fee,
  • Official transcripts from all colleges and universities previously attended,
  • Official transcript evaluation by 91ÖÆƬ³§,
  • Pre-admission test scores, and

Students are responsible for assuring that their applications are complete, including the transcript evaluation. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Students seeking readmission are required to submit an application and fee.

Applications for admission to the pre-licensure B.S.N. program are evaluated competitively on the following basis (admission is limited by available space):

  1. Admission to the university (See Admissions section of this bulletin.)

Under no circumstances may a nursing course be repeated more than once.  Failing two nursing courses results in program failure. Re-admission to the program is not guaranteed and is based on space availability, assessment of previous performance in the program and grades. Progression policies are published in the Undergraduate Nursing Studies Student Handbook.

See the Undergraduate Nursing Studies Handbook for specific policies. The handbook is available by contacting the Dishman Department of Nursing, (409) 880-8831.
