With Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) programs already available at the Brookfield and Kenosha campuses in Wisconsin, Herzing University recently expanded its nursing program to include a BSN degree at its Madison campus. The program was launched to help fill a statewide gap of almost 20,000 nurses by 2035, a projection issued by the Wisconsin Center for Nursing.

Students are eligible to enroll directly into the BSN program and finish their degrees in three years. With spring, summer, and fall semesters available, students can earn their degree faster than traditional four-year BSN programs. Bill Vinson, Madison Campus President at Herzing University, told Herzing.edu,

“We’re excited to make this program available locally in Madison because the industry is changing, with hospitals striving to hire more nurses with a bachelor’s degree. Nursing is still a very in-demand career field, and a BSN makes our students more competitive in the job market.”

Herzing also offers an RN to BSN bridge program that allows licensed registered nurses (RNs) with associate degrees to earn their bachelor’s degree in 12 months. RNs in the bridge program complete their BSN coursework through a combination of in-person and online classroom settings. For Wisconsin nurses who have completed their BSN, the university offers a variety of nursing and healthcare specialty programs, including a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program for family nurse practitioners and nurse educators.

Herzing University is an accredited private nonprofit with 10 campuses in seven states and an online division. The university is known for its small class sizes and supportive learning environment with a flexible schedule. Learn more about Herzing University and it’s nursing programs here.
