Bellarmine Receives Nursing Grant to Recruit Underrepresented Students

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Bellarmine's Lansing School of Nursing and Health Sciences has received an $80,000 grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to recruit students from underrepresented or disadvantaged backgrounds to the nursing field. Eight students will receive $10,000 each to pursue an accelerated bachelor's degree in nursing. Candidates must already hold a non-nursing bachelor's degree.

The program targets men, racial and ethnic minority groups and students who are economically disadvantaged. The scholarships will allow students to enroll in the one-year accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing program that begins in the summer of 2010. Students may use the money for educational or living expenses.

"Bellarmine is committed to increasing the enrollment of students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds," said Sue Davis, Ed.D., dean of the Lansing School. "The scholarships from Robert Wood Johnson will make it possible for us to attract and enroll qualified students who might otherwise have been unable to afford nursing as a career choice."

Co-directors for the project at Bellarmine are: Barbara Lee, assistant professor of nursing; Beverley Holland, Ph.D., associate professor of nursing and chair of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program; and Joan Masters, Ed.D., associate professor of nursing.

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation New Careers in Nursing is a scholarship program to help alleviate the nursing shortage and increase diversity in the nursing profession.
