Welcome to the Curry College School of Nursing. Our program began in 1977 when Boston Children's Hospital School of Nursing elected to phase out their diploma school and merge their resources with the Curry community to create a baccalaureate program. As the first Nursing program in the State of Massachusetts to be accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education, we pride ourselves on delivering a rigorous, world- class, educational experience that prepares graduates to provide the highest quality of nursing care. As a School of Nursing within a liberal arts college, our faculty are uniquely dedicated to helping students learn to apply knowledge, humanely, intelligently, and effectively in our complex changing world. Our vision is that graduates will ultimately transform into leaders who will use evidence-based knowledge to practice nursing with creativity, compassion, and commitment.
