Add Opportunities and Experiences

The Lienhard School of Nursing within the College of Health Professions ensures that clinical and simulation laboratory experiences are a primary component of the student experience. Students build skills and confidence in the Center for Excellence in Healthcare Simulation. The Center offers state-of-the-art resources and a variety of clinical focused learning opportunities ranging from fundamental skills to high-fidelity simulation. Located on both the Westchester and New York City campuses, with a combined 15,000 square feet, the simulation labs use standardized patients (actors who play the role of patients), task trainers, and high-fidelity manikins to train both undergraduate and graduate students in a multidisciplinary approach.

In our program, students complete more than 700 hours of clinical training in a variety of areas, such as behavioral health, maternal and women’s health, pediatrics, acute, chronic, and critical care.

In the final semester, students complete a capstone experience in a unique one-to-one preceptorship with a working registered nurse. This final preceptorship may occur in one of many specialties, including emergency department, intensive or neonatal intensive care, oncology, pediatrics, operating room, and many more.
