Louisiana State University (LSU) is set to launch a new instructional site for its nationally-recognized Bachelor of Science in Nursing program on the Baton Rouge campus in fall 2025. This expansion aims to address the state’s projected shortage of registered nurses, which is anticipated to reach 42 percent by 2030. The Baton Rouge site will offer the same rigorous curriculum as LSU Health New Orleans’ School of Nursing, delivered through a combination of in-person instruction and synchronous distance education. Clinical training will be provided through partnerships with Woman’s Hospital and Our Lady of the Lake, offering students hands-on experience in real-world healthcare settings. ■ lsu.edu
