The Rhode Island Nursing Education Center in Providence welcomes URI College of Nursing graduate and undergraduate students, who have access to 133,000 square feet of laboratory, classroom and office space at 350 Eddy St. Rapid changes in the increasingly complex environment for the health sciences demand advanced clinical education and ever-more rigorous academic requirements for nurses.
URI’s graduate nursing programs, from its master’s degree offering to doctor of nurse practitioner and Ph.D. degree tracks, are entirely housed at the center. The nursing professionals enrolled in these programs learn from faculty who practice at the top of their fields and benefit from collaborative opportunities available at nearby leading health care institutions. The Center’s proximity to the state’s leading hospitals and health-care providers, as well as Brown University’s Alpert Medical School, offers students, faculty and researchers unprecedented opportunities for learning and collaboration.
