Curriculum

The primary focus is on conceptual learning so that students can then gain the ability to translate theory into practice in a clinical setting.
Hands-on practice in both the Chamberlain SIMCARE CENTER™, along with on-site clinical experiences, allow nursing students to work side-by-side with faculty, mentors, peers and registered nurses as they hone their direct patient-care nursing skills.
Our Jacksonville, FL nursing program consists of a minimum of 122 credit hours: 56 credit hours in general education and 66 credit hours in the nursing major.
