I’m just curious. If you’re an undergraduate hoping to get into nursing then your own options for BSN at a UC are UCI, UCLA, and UCSF. But there are so many CSUs that offer BSN. Plus UCR, UC Merced, UCSB, and UCSC don’t even have BSNs at all. UCSD and and UCD only have master’s for nursing. Why don’t more UCs offer a BSN?
UCSF does not offer a BSN, only MSN since it is a graduate school.
Answered this on your other thread:
The original goal for the CSU’s was to give local students a great education and get them into the workforce. The UC’s goals were more geared towards research and graduate schools.
Are you still worried about attending CSULB for Nursing? Do not worry about the differences in the UC’s vs CSU’s for Nursing. Once you get your BSN, no employer will care where you went to school.
@Gumbymom hi, no I am not still worried about attending CSULB for nursing. I was just really curious as to why nursing specifically is less offered at UCs as opposed to other majors.
Years ago, UCSF did offer a bachelors degree in nursing. I have a few friends who have the bachelors degree in nursing from UCSF. Evidently, they eliminated it and just offer the masters and PhD.
Also, a pure undergraduate business degree is less offered at UC’s than CSU’s. Only at 3 UC’s (UCB, UCI and UCR) offer undergraduate business degrees. I believe all or most CSU’s offer undergraduate business degrees.
