HANDS-ON LEARNING

DAVID BUCKNER

“ At Charlotte, I chose nursing in order to gain the skills and knowledge to make a difference in the lives of others! My favorite course has been Human Growth and Development, where we learned about development across the lifespan. I also founded the Association of Nursing Students on campus! Now, I’m planning to enter the healthcare industry as a Certified Nurse Midwife and women’s health practitioner!”

Nursing

“During my time at Charlotte, I’ve participated in four different internships. Getting involved with the University Career Center, the Business Learning Community and the National Association of Black Accountants has really enhanced my professional skills and introduced me to great advisors that will help me throughout my future.”
