When pursuing your RN to BSN degree, you may wonder what kinds of classes you'll be taking. Here are some classes from common RN schools you may be expected to take when completing your degree.

-Nursing Research. Almost all programs of study require some nursing research class to help you to conduct research associated with health care problems.

-Professional Nursing. Since those RNs who hold associate's degrees usually have education focused on the practical aspects of nursing, RN to BSN degrees have classes that expand their knowledge to talk about the theoretical applications of nursing.

-Nursing and the Community. Many RN to BSN programs will include a course on community health concerns for both the local environment and globally.

-Nursing Practicum. You will probably be required to complete a clinical or practicum course, to help you gain hands-on experience with the nursing concepts you've been learning about in class.
