Chamberlain College of Nursing is a for-profit nursing school that offers bachelor, master and doctoral degree programs in nursing.
Chamberlain College of Nursing was first established in St. Louis in 1889, under the name Deaconess School of Nursing. The Deaconess tradition began in 19th-Century Europe when Theodor Fliedner of Kaiserswerth, Germany, established the first Deaconess Home and Hospital in 1836. The word deaconess means “one who is devoted to service,” being the feminine gender of the word deacon. Their headquarters is located in Downers Grove, IL at the following address: 3005 Highland Parkway Downers Grove, IL 60515.
Chamberlain College of Nursing offers undergraduate programs enabling students to earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree (available at all campus locations). The BSN degree program does not require any prior experience and allows students to complete their degree in as few as three years, instead of the typical four years with summers off.
Chamberlain also offers an RN to BSN online degree completion option for registered nurses. This online option allows registered nurses to earn a BSN degree in as few as 3 semesters. The option offers the flexibility of online learning, with 24/7 access to courses and no mandatory login times.
The RN-BSN to MSN Online Bridge Option is for RNs who wish to earn both a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree and Master of Science in Nursing degree (MSN). The program allows students to earn a MSN degree in one less semester total.
Chamberlain also offers a Master of Science in Nursing online degree program with five tracks: Educator, Executive, Healthcare Policy, Family Nurse Practitioner or Nursing Informatics. Each track allows registered nurses to earn an MSN degree in as few as two and a half years.
The Educator Specialty Track prepares students to teach in academic and clinical-practice settings, as well as continue on for further graduate study. Coursework includes educational foundations, instructional methods, program assessment and evaluation and curriculum development. Students complete a 100-hour practicum in their own geographic location, allowing them to further develop their skills with the support of an experienced nurse educator.
