Greetings future and current students, and welcome to the Colorado Christian University (CCU) School of Nursing and Health Professions (SNHP) webpage. You have made an excellent decision to explore a Christian education at CCU. Our faculty, staff, and curriculum embody biblical truths and strive to instill a passion for nursing as a ministry.
Nursing is a career that facilitates deep human connections and an opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus while serving others. It is an exciting time for nursing education here at CCU. We take pride in our high academic standards, brand new 10,000 square foot simulation lab, and especially, our commitment to curriculum that incorporates a Christian worldview.
Please peruse our site and the multiple programs that we offer. Our degree options include a traditional, primarily in-seat BSN program. Online programs include an RN-BSN, BSN to DNP: Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner and Transformational Leadership, BSN to DNP: Family Nurse Practitioner and Transformational Leadership, BSN to DNP: Nurse Educator and Transformational Leadership, and MSN to DNP: Visionary Leadership, DNP.
Faculty are highly qualified in their areas of expertise, have significant educational experience, and are committed to your academic success. Program deans, directors, and advisors are also happy to assist you in the planning and facilitation of your nursing courses. Again, welcome, and thank you for considering CCU as your choice for nursing education. As the new Dean of the SNHP, I am honored and excited to serve this organization with integrity and excellence.
