Online Program Mission, Goals and Outcomes

Program Mission

The New England Institute of Technology Nursing department seeks to prepare nurses at the certificate, associate, bachelor, and master levels to practice holistically in today鈥檚 complex and highly technological health care system. The mission of the programs is to prepare individuals as professionals whose care reflects altruistic, evidence-based, and ethical practice in the nursing profession.

Program Philosophy

This philosophy, the foundation of our RN to BSN curriculum, represents the faculty鈥檚 core beliefs regarding human beings, environment, health, nursing, higher education, teaching, and learning.聽We believe that every person is a unique being worthy of respect and dignity. In our RN to BSN nursing framework, biological and social components integrate seamlessly in individuals who use self-care to maintain their health status.聽We view the environment as the totality of the patient鈥檚 experience, including family, cultural context, society, and the global community. We also recognize that the patient鈥檚 environment is a major influence on the patient鈥檚 health status.聽Health is an individual experience characterized by wholeness where physical, psychological, interpersonal, spiritual, cultural, and social aspects of health are inseparable. An individual鈥檚 response to stressors may change the ability of the patient to engage in self-care, resulting in deficits in meeting basic needs and requiring the need for nursing care.聽Individuals are moving toward maturation and actualization of their full potential. Humans have universal self-care requisites, and nurses need to be tireless advocates for patients鈥� pursuit of these universal needs within a caring and nonjudgmental environment.

Nursing is a scientific discipline with a distinct body of knowledge. Nursing practice roots in nursing science, natural sciences, social sciences, technology, and humanities. A nurse engages with patients in an active partnership and seeks to understand the patient鈥檚 lived experience of illness. Within this context, nurses provide holistic, evidence-based nursing care that respects and supports individual definitions of health. Nurses focus on quality healthcare and advocate for diverse individuals, families, communities, and systems. The nursing practice derives inspiration from these paradigmatic beliefs, which provide the foundation for critical inquiry and knowledge development in nursing.

Every person who wishes to pursue a career in nursing should have the opportunity to do so. By advancing educational access for a diverse population of students, nursing education contributes to a diverse nursing workforce to meet the healthcare needs of culturally and ethnically diverse populations. Likewise, every nurse should pursue and have access to seamless academic progression in nursing education. The Department of Nursing at the New England Tech joins other nursing organizations in Rhode Island and throughout the nation to advance opportunities for academic progression within nursing. We stand ready to work together to ensure that nurses have the support they need to further their education.聽Higher education for nursing practice provides a sound theoretical and empirical knowledge base. The online RN to BSN educational program intends to address the needs of diverse learners by encouraging active participation in the learning process. Nursing education seeks to empower students as future nurses while instilling an enthusiasm for lifelong critical inquiry, learning, and professional growth.聽The faculty is committed to creating supportive environments that foster adult learning. Students have multiple opportunities to develop the core competencies that characterize a well-educated nurse.

Students work closely with professors who care about them and provide opportunities for student learning and development聽 as confident lifelong learners.聽The faculty use a variety of evidence-based teaching methods that address adult students鈥� learning needs. Learners assume responsibility for their learning and are active participants in the learning process.

Q&A and Technical Standards

Questions & Answers

1. When do my classes meet? Because the RN to BSN program is online, there are no times when students are required to meet in a traditional on-campus classroom. Faculty may schedule (at their discretion) online discussions or other activities through the online learning software that may require you to attend class at a specific time. These sessions may be recorded for students to access at a later time. However, most online work is expected to be completed based on the student’s schedule within the context of the course requirements.
2. Must I take other classes in addition to the Nursing courses? Yes. In addition to your nursing courses, to qualify for your bachelor鈥檚 degree, you will take a total of seven liberal arts courses over the course of your RN to BSN program of study.

4. How is taking an online course different from an on-campus course? Online courses offer you flexibility in the scheduling of your class and study time. However, online courses also require self-discipline and self-motivation to do the work that is expected of the course. Since there will be no 鈥渓ecture鈥� time and no class time to attend, you will need to dedicate an appropriate amount of time to review the course content on the Canvas learning management system, complete the readings, participate in the online discussion forums, and complete other assignments. Instead of meeting at a fixed time and location, your online course will run on a weekly schedule starting on a Monday and ending on a Sunday evening. Generally, there are no set meeting times during which the entire class meets. Despite this flexibility, you are required to login to your course regularly as described in the course syllabus. Additionally, there may be some assignments when specific due dates must be met.
5. Do online courses take more time than on-campus courses? No. Online courses require the same amount of work as an on-campus course. However, the time you spend in an online course will be different than in an on-campus course.

Additional guidelines and individualized support are provided to all matriculated students.
13. When should I begin looking for a preceptor for NUR 447 Leadership & Capstone course? It is never too early to begin thinking about potential nurse preceptors! It is highly recommended that students begin identifying and speaking with potential preceptors early in the program of study but no later than when they are two terms away from enrolling in NUR 447 Leadership & Capstone.

All capstone documents are located in the RN to BSN Student Nurse Guidelines on the students.neit.edu.
15. What documentation is required for my NUR 447 Leadership & Capstone? The following compliance documents must be on file in the Department of Nursing one full term before registering for NUR 447 (the Academic Fieldwork Coordinator is available to answer questions and assist students as needed):
    • Current American Heart Association CPR certification for Healthcare providers at the infant, child, and adult levels.
    • Leadership & Capstone Contract
    • Preceptor鈥檚 current Resume or Curriculum Vitae, Qualification Form, and two professional References
    • Certain practicum sites may have additional requirements. Students are responsible to consult with their preceptor to see if there are any other requirements.

A minimum grade of B- (80%) is required for Nursing (NUR) and Biology (BIO) courses and a minimum grade of C+ (77%) is required for all other courses taken to complete the RN to BSN Program. Students may repeat a nursing course only once. A student will be dismissed from the program if any two courses (NUR or BIO) are not passed with a B- (80%) or better.
18. Can I transfer credits earned at another college to New England Tech? Transfer credit for appropriate baccalaureate level courses taken at an accredited institution will be considered upon receipt of an official transcript for any program, biology, science, and mathematics courses in which the student has earned a “C+” (77%) or above within the past three years and for English or humanities courses in which the student has earned a “C+” or above within the last ten years.

19. Is there a residency requirement? Yes. To be eligible for graduation from New England Tech with the RN to BSN degree, students must complete the last 34 credit hours as a matriculated student in the RN to BSN program at New England Tech.
20. Will advisors be available to me? Yes. Students in the RN to BSN program will be assigned a Student Advisor from the Office of Student Support Services. The institution has developed a two-tiered approach to student advising: a Student Advisor assigned from the Office of Student Support Services and a faculty advisor. The New England Tech Student Advisor provides guidance, encouragement and support to students and is the primary point of contact for all student concerns and information about New England Tech policies and procedures. From the individual student鈥檚 perspective, the New England Tech Student Advisor is the student鈥檚 college-wide advisor on all matters related to success at New England Tech. Student Advisors assists students who are experiencing difficulties with their course work or who encounter problems that interfere with the successful completion of their program. Student Advisors monitor students鈥� attendance and academic progress and contact students as needed. The Student Advisor鈥檚 outreach to the students includes weekly emails to students and, as needed, individual phone calls to the students. Students may meet with their Student Advisor for a degree audit and for assistance with course selection and registration. Students with disabilities who wish to request accommodations must self-identify, communicate their needs to their Student Advisor and provide current and comprehensive documentation concerning the nature and extent of their disability. The RN to BSN program identifies a department faculty advisor to council students on academic matters. These faculty advisors are assigned by the department chair and provide students with direction in course curriculum including the selection of appropriate elective courses as well as other appropriate academic program advice.
21. How many credits do I need to acquire my Financial Aid? Full-time students receive the maximum amount of financial aid for which they are eligible.

Students must have a credit load of at least 6 credits per academic term to be eligible for any type of financial aid. Pro-ration and eligibility vary based on the aid program.
