HUNTSVILLE, Alabama — The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) and Calhoun Community College (CCC) have announced the creation of a new dual nursing degree program.
This program allows students simultaneously to earn their associate's and bachelor's degrees in nursing.
The schools said that students who plan to enroll in the program should complete general education courses at CCC and then apply to both UAH and CCC nursing programs. Once accepted to both programs, students will complete their last five semesters at both institutions.
“The unique thing about this program is that we use one curriculum,” said Calhoun Nursing Department Chair Lynn Hogan. “The faculty at Calhoun and UAH are working very closely to ensure the learning process is seamless and that students won’t have any issues when they transition to UAH to complete their final semesters.”
More information about the programs can be found on CCC's website.
