Newman University's BSN program promotes the achievement of learning outcomes in liberal arts and the art and science of nursing. Students also receive the benefit of attending a private, Catholic liberal arts university that features personalized instruction, including clinical instruction in the major teaching hospitals in Wichita, and in a variety of community agencies.
