Nursing/Health Professions

Return to: 9000 Perimeter College and Departments

Nursing is an art and a science. It is the art of knowing how to balance knowledge and compassion to give holistic care to individuals, families, groups and communities. As a science, nursing requires a wealth of knowledge and critical-thinking skills necessary to provide safe, effective, culturally competent medical care.

Effective July 1, 2016, the Perimeter College Department of Nursing became an administrative unit of the Georgia State University School of Nursing. The new name for the associate degree path to nursing is The Georgia State University School of Nursing Associate Degree Program, Perimeter College. The associate degree courses continue to be housed at the current campus locations, and admissions standards and program costs remain the same.
