School of Nursing and Health Sciences

Informed by the Caritas philosophy, students in our undergraduate, graduate, and certificate programs graduate capable of performing necessary tasks and procedures and of fostering moments of healing and care with patients.

Manhattanville’s modern approach to nursing and healthcare education develops inter-professional collaborators who can respond to the changing landscape of their fields. Our Caritas healthcare professionals can perform tasks while being completely present and centered with the patient and balance high-tech with high-touch care.

Health careers are more necessary now than ever before. Radiographers, nurses, nurse practitioners, and nurse leaders will continue to be essential amid a shortage of primary care physicians, stepping up to serve their community as thoughtful and informed decision-makers. Become ready to meet the needs of your community, whether you practice in a school, public health setting, or traditional clinical setting.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), registered nurses (RNs) will see a 6% growth in employment over ten years by 2031. It’s becoming increasingly common for RNs to hold baccalaureate-level credentials, as they provide opportunities for increased responsibility and earning potential. For credentialed nurse practitioners and other nurse leaders, the BLS estimates 40% growth, significantly faster than the average for all occupations.

With realistic technical training and experience in integrated management and patient care tactics, SNHS graduates have skills that make them sought after by top employers. Our undergraduate and graduate programs position students to pursue the professional credentials they need to practice in their state or specialty.
