Program Overview
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program at the Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) is a comprehensive, patient-centered curriculum designed to prepare compassionate and competent nurses for the modern healthcare environment. Offered through the MSOE School of Nursing, the program integrates evidence-based clinical practice with advanced simulation technology and leadership development. Known for its small class sizes, personalized instruction, and high NCLEX-RN pass rates, MSOE’s BSN program equips students to become critical thinkers, ethical decision-makers, and skilled caregivers in hospitals, clinics, long-term care, and community health settings.
Curriculum: MSOE’s nursing curriculum blends foundational sciences with intensive nursing coursework and clinical rotations. Students begin nursing-specific courses in their first year, allowing for a more immersive and continuous learning experience. Core subjects include anatomy and physiology, pharmacology, pathophysiology, medical-surgical nursing, pediatrics, obstetrics, mental health, and community health nursing. Students also take courses in leadership, ethics, and informatics to prepare for roles in nursing management and systems improvement. The program features a state-of-the-art Ruehlow Nursing Complex, where students engage in simulation-based training with high-fidelity mannequins, giving them the opportunity to develop clinical judgment in a controlled, real-world-like environment.
Research Focus: While MSOE is not a research university in the traditional sense, the BSN program supports evidence-based practice (EBP) through student-led research projects and coursework that emphasizes inquiry, critical appraisal of literature, and clinical innovation. Nursing students often complete scholarly projects as part of their senior practicum or leadership courses, addressing issues like patient safety, healthcare disparities, chronic disease management, and quality improvement. This focus on applied research ensures that graduates are prepared to implement the latest clinical evidence and improve outcomes in a variety of healthcare settings.
Industry Engagement: MSOE’s nursing students benefit from strong partnerships with leading healthcare institutions in Milwaukee and beyond, including Froedtert Health, Children’s Wisconsin, Aurora Health Care, Ascension, and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center. These affiliations offer students access to a wide range of clinical experiences across specialties such as emergency care, intensive care, maternal-child health, and public health. The program’s clinical rotations begin early and continue throughout the degree, helping students gain confidence and competence at the bedside. These strong healthcare relationships also translate into high job placement rates, often before graduation.
Global Perspective: The BSN program at MSOE incorporates a global and multicultural perspective on health and nursing. Students explore international health systems, global disease trends, and cross-cultural communication in coursework and seminars. Opportunities for service learning, study abroad experiences, and medical mission trips are occasionally available, allowing students to engage with underserved populations and develop cultural sensitivity. This global outlook ensures MSOE graduates are prepared to care for diverse patient populations and contribute to health equity both locally and internationally.
