Thirty-six students were graduated in 1974. That same year the School of Nursing baccalaureate program was granted initial accreditation by the National League for Nursing. The School was designated a College of Nursing in 1987. Since inception, the UAH College of Nursing has graduated 8225 alumni, awarded 9749 degrees and certificates, and added three advanced degrees: Master of Science in Nursing (MSN), Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), and Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing Science (PhD). We invite our College of Nursing family - alumni, students, retirees, faculty, staff, friends, and community partners - to celebrate our Golden Anniversary and five decades of nursing excellence. Together, we will honor our past and innovate for the future!
