International Capstone Experience

In April 2010, the first four students to complete the online RN-BSN degree program had the opportunity to meet in San Jose, Costa Rica as part of their capstone experience course. The capstone experience provided the opportunity to meet in person, work collaboratively with an interdisciplinary team, and to form lifelong professional bonds and friendships.

The capstone experience is designed to allow students to demonstrate their integration of knowledge and clinical competency -- through working within an interdisciplinary team in discipline-specific practice, students demonstrate leadership within professional collegial relationships and integrate faith, learning, and nursing ministry.
