Angle.<\/p>\n<p>Named the top Bachelor of Science in Nursing program in the country by Nurse.org, the UTC School of Nursing program boasts a 100% employment rate and a five-year average pass rate of 97% on the National Council Licensure Exam (NCLEX-RN) for Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) graduates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt Unum, we see the critical role nurses play in our customers\u2019 journeys every day,\u201d said Liz Ahmed, Unum Group\u2019s executive vice president, People and Communications. \u201cWhether they are supporting patients through cancer treatments or helping new parents welcome their child into the world, nurses are vital to the health and wellbeing of our communities. Our investment in UTC\u2019s nursing program ensures that the next generation of nursing students has the tools and resources they need to succeed now and into the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The UTC School of Nursing accepts approximately 50% of applicants, turning down eligible students due to space and class size limitations. Approximately 90,000 square feet, the new Dorothy and Jim Kennedy Health Sciences Building will allow for increased enrollment, access to state-of-the-art classrooms and a cutting-edge simulation lab to educate future nurses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe majority of our BSN graduates, 71%, remain in the Chattanooga area to work once they complete their degree, and this number jumps to 83% for our Family Nurse Practitioner graduates,\u201d said Dr. Chris Smith, director of the UTC School of Nursing. \u201cThis gift is a vital investment in our University, students and the quality of care our entire community needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Along with an $8 million naming gift from the Kennedy Foundation, Inc., announced in 2023, the project\u2019s cost will be funded through donations and state resources with a building campaign goal of $21 million. The new building, set to break ground later this year at the corner of Palmetto and East 3rd Streets, has an anticipated completion in late 2026.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the project, visit give.utc.edu\/KennedyHealthSciencesBuilding.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">#\u00a0\u00a0 #\u00a0\u00a0 #\u00a0\u00a0 #\u00a0\u00a0 #<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Division of Advancement<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The mission of the Division of Advancement at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga is to build meaningful connections for all Mocs and inspire generosity for Chattanooga\u2019s university.
