Become a skilled and empathetic caregiver by studying transcultural nursing—a holistic approach to team-based healthcare that respects a patient’s personal beliefs, experiences, and values.

What You’ll Learn

Gain boots-on-the-ground training in diverse clinical placements throughout New York City and beyond, and ready yourself for a career as a leader in the nursing field., You’ll learn to practice with patients across their lifespan while respecting individual variations, complexities, and resources needed for individualized care.

During the program’s clinical phase, you’ll work in rotations in our affiliated network of private healthcare institutions, major New York area hospitals, ambulatory community clinics, and extended care facilities. Students may also have the opportunity to participate in outreach programs that help underserved populations, from refugees in Athens, Greece, to patients in Costa Rica.
