Welcome to Nursing at SFSU

The School of Nursing educates and empowers nurses to be agents of change to transform health care.

We commit to co-create change by deconstructing, disrupting and dismantling systems of oppression through the nursing profession. We foster evidence-based nursing, ethical decision-making, sound clinical judgment, leadership and holistic compassionate care using a justice perspective. We promote diversity in the nursing workforce and commit to recruit, retain, support, nurture and mentor our students, faculty and staff to support equity and inclusion.
