Welcome to College of Nursing
We don’t just graduate students who are practice ready, rather students who are ready to change practice.
We don’t just teach nurses. From day one, we educate nurses who are prepared to integrate the science and art of nursing, articulate informed treatment options and advocate for their patients as they provide and direct expert care.
If you’re ready to take the next step in your nursing career — or if you’re just starting on the journey to becoming a nurse — ECU can give you the tools you need to thrive.

Every gift moves us closer to helping a future nurse succeed, educating tomorrow’s nurse leaders, and making research breakthroughs that improve patient care.
