Established in 1986, SUSON currently offers four degree tracks: a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) with a specialty concentration in family health, a Doctorate of Nursing Practice (DNP), and a Doctorate of Philosophy degree. The goal is to increase diversity in the healthcare sector and provide quality education for those looking to enter the medical field. This week, students and SUSON staff gathered to celebrate the next class of graduates, the largest class of male graduates in University history. 

“As the largest class of male students in the history of SUSON, these exceptional nursing students were recognized for their dedication, commitment to healthcare, and the positive representation of men in the nursing profession. Their achievements and contributions were celebrated in a show of support from university leadership, faculty, and community stakeholders, underscoring the impact of SUSON on future healthcare professionals,” SUSON said in a statement on social media.

Congratulations to all the graduates!
