Research College of Nursing
Research College of Nursing is a private, not-for-profit nursing college in Kansas City, Missouri, based on the Research Medical Center campus. The school is centered on nursing education and is especially known for its Bachelor of Science in Nursing, a campus-based program of about 122 credit hours that is typically completed in four years.
Students can expect a hands-on learning experience that blends classroom instruction with simulation, skills labs, and supervised clinical practice. The curriculum emphasizes clinical judgment, patient-centered care, evidence-based practice, leadership, communication, informatics, and quality and safety. Clinical learning takes place in hospital and community settings, supported by the college’s strong ties to regional health systems. The BSN prepares graduates for the NCLEX-RN, and the college holds CCNE accreditation and National League for Nursing Center of Excellence recognition. In the Kansas City area, Research College stands out as a smaller, nursing-focused option for students who want direct access to clinical environments and a clear BSN pathway.
