Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program

If you aspire to a career in nursing — to saving lives and making a difference — this four-year program at Murray State will prepare you for beginning levels of nurse practice and fulfill the educational requirements to write the state board licensing exam for registered nurses. There are three semesters of pre-requisite courses and five semesters of nursing courses. Clinical experiences also take place throughout the region and in a variety of settings to prepare you for life in the field.

Welcome to the Arthur J. Bauernfeind College of Business. Here you will find traditional business disciplines such as Accounting, Finance, Marketing, Management, and Computer Information Systems as well as Economics, Journalism and Mass Communications, Organizational Communication and Leadership, and Computer Science.

Though we have a wide variety of disciplines, we share three key characteristics. First, we have faculty who are not only experts in their fields, but have a passion to see you learn, grow, and succeed in your chosen area of study.

Second, we believe in hands on learning. From our new finance classrooms to the Murray State News, to partnering in research and projects with faculty and community businesses, our students have many opportunities to apply outside the classroom what they are learning inside the classroom.

Finally, we are committed to students’ success in careers and community service. We work with the Murray State Career Service office as well as business and government agencies to help our students start their careers. Many of our students participate in internships, community service and outreach activities, and professional activities while at Murray State.
