University of Tennessee, Knoxville
The University of Tennessee, Knoxville’s College of Nursing is part of a public, four-year flagship university in Knoxville, Tennessee. It offers campus-based prelicensure nursing education, including a traditional BSN and an accelerated pathway for students who already hold a bachelor’s degree, along with advanced graduate study in select nursing specialties. The traditional BSN is typically completed in four years and requires about 120 credits; advanced programs may use online or hybrid coursework with on-site clinical requirements.
Students develop clinical judgment, evidence-based practice, health assessment, leadership, patient-centered care, quality and safety skills, and teamwork across healthcare settings. Prelicensure study uses classroom instruction, skills labs, simulation, and supervised clinical placements with regional healthcare partners, preparing graduates for the NCLEX-RN. The college is approved by the Tennessee Board of Nursing and accredited by CCNE. Compared with nearby associate-degree and private nursing programs, UT Knoxville stands out for its large research-university setting, broad academic resources, and access to graduate nursing pathways.

A DNP is the highest clinical nursing degree, taking 2–4 years, preparing nurses for advanced practice, executive leadership, and policy roles—distinct from the research-focused PhD.
A post-graduate APRN certificate is a 12–24 month credential that lets MSN-prepared nurses add or change an advanced practice specialty without earning a second degree.
