Message from the Dean

Welcome to Caldwell University’s School of Nursing and Health Services!

This is an exciting time to consider a healthcare career! Our majors represent a wide array of health profession options with the knowledge, skills, and values needed to make profound differences in the lives of individuals, families, and communities for whom they serve. Combined with our rigorous academic standards and hands-on learning experiences, our students are prepared to meet current and future healthcare challenges. 

Our exceptional faculty and staff are dedicated to our students’ intellectual, spiritual, and aesthetic growth. As experts in their field of study, our faculty will mentor our students as they progress throughout their curriculum toward their professional goals.

Our alumni have successful careers across all areas of health, behavior analysis, and wellness. Graduates work as Registered Professional Nurses, and Health Educators, and provide the foundational education to work toward a career as Speech-Language Pathologists or Audiologists. Our graduate education prepares Clinical Mental Health Counselors and Art Therapists in areas of specialization and concentration. Options include a Master’s degree in School Counseling, a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with art therapy concentration, and a post-graduate Master’s degree in art therapy. 

As one of only eight universities in the world to offer accreditation at both an MA and PhD level, our Applied Behavior Analysis programs prepare graduates to work with the autistic population and for a career as leaders in the field.

Caldwell University’s School of Nursing and Health Services has so much to offer. I hope you join us and start your path toward one of our programs in a vital and rewarding field of study. Let’s shape the future of healthcare together!
