The Warner Pacific University campus in southeast Portland will soon offer a Bachelor of
Science in Nursing degree.
Nursing Degree Program Approved
Warner Pacific aims at building diversity in workforce
The Oregon State Board of
Nursing this month approved
Warner Pacific University’s
proposal to offer the pre-licen-
sure Bachelor of Science in
Nursing degree.
Warner Pacific President Dr.
Andrea Cook said approval of
the program provides a signifi-
cant opportunity for the univer-
sity to advance its mission to
provide students from diverse
backgrounds with an education
that prepares them for a con-
stantly changing world.
“With 63 percent of our stu-
dents identifying as persons of
color, Warner Pacific is ready to
help meet the vital need in our
community for diverse, bacca-
laureate prepared nurses,” said
Cook. “Our Christ-centered
community and liberal arts
curriculum will prepare the
next generation of nurses with
caring, faith, and intellectual
inquiry.”
The nursing program is
expected to be very popular
among current and prospec-
tive students, said Dale Seipp,
Jr., Warner Pacific University’s
vice president for enrollment
and marketing.
“We are so excited that stu-
dents who want to follow their
calling to become nurses can
now pursue that at Warner Pa-
cific,” said Seipp. “Celebrating
diversity and a focus on serving
the community is at the heart of
the Warner Pacific experience.
It makes our program the per-
fect fit for students who want
to impact the world through the
profession of nursing.”
The Warner Pacific Univer-
sity Nursing Program has been
community focused from the
beginning, with an advisory
council providing critical in-
sight into what future nurses
will need to provide quality
and compassionate care.
In addition to unwavering
internal support to launch our
pre-licensure BSN Degree Pro-
gram, we received timely and
expert contributions from the
Warner Pacific Nursing Advi-
sory Council,” said Dr. Linda
Campbell, dean of nursing.
“Since 2015, this 11-member
council has been shaping a
mission-driven vision of high-
er education for nursing. We
are profoundly grateful to our
advisory council members for
their collaborative support,
guidance, and encouragement
during this necessarily rigorous
process.”
