The vision of the Nursing Program, also developed to reflect the vision of the University, is described below:
 
The Southeastern University Nursing Program will offer a professional education program that prepares students to provide excellent nursing care to individuals, families, and communities through the integration of faith, learning, and service.
 
Faculty will provide a Christ-centered, student-focused learning community that encourages students to grow in their role as professional nurses.  

Students will gain an educational foundation that allows them to provide safe, evidence-based, and culturally competent care for all patients, with special emphasis on the underserved. They will use clinical judgment to integrate evolving technology and research findings into caring interventions that improve patients’ health and support the sick and dying, their families, and communities.
 
Students will commit to life-long learning, rigorous scholarship, leadership, and collaborative interprofessional practice as a means of serving their communities.
