Just announced, St. Joseph’s is introducin­g a Bachelor of Science in Nursing on both its Brooklyn and Long Island Campuses for the 2015 Fall Semester. The B.S. in Nursing was designed to prepare SJC students for careers as registered profession­al nurses. The program will include the use of sophistica­ted patient simulation and skills labs to enhance student learning and provide opportunit­ies to gain practice before their first clinical experience in the hospital setting by developing psychomoto­r skills, critical thinking skills and clinical reasoning essential to nursing practice. The program will also provide a supportive and caring environmen­t for students to learn, practice and refine skills needed to function in the clinical setting.

Another new program, the B.S. degree in Hospitalit­y and Tourism Management includes three distinct areas of concentrat­ion — Tourism, Hotel Management and Health Care Hospitalit­y — designed to afford students a variety of pathways to pursue a broad range of career choices that align with the most recent trends in employment in the New York region.

Another unique program at St. Joseph’s College is the Journalism and New Media Studies Program, which provides a blend of academics and practical skills gained through first-hand experience­s with leading media outlets.

Known for their excellence in teacher education, St. Joseph’s recently added an M.A. degree in Childhood or Adolescenc­e Special Education on the Brooklyn Campus. This program focuses on four leadership core courses and six special education classes, providing students with a range of certificat­ion options. St. Joseph’s also recently added several dual degrees for the B.A. or B.S./M.A. in Adolescenc­e Special Education or Math Education on the Long Island campus to help students save time and money in completing their graduate degrees.

St. Joseph’s understand­s the unique needs of adult students. That’s why we offer a wide range of unique programs, each with affordabil­ity, flexibilit­y and convenienc­e. For students looking for graduate programs, we offer intensive graduate programs leading to master’s degrees in business, education, human services and nursing, as well as an MFA in Creative Writing (Brooklyn only).
