CHRIST COLLEGE + COLLEGE OF NURSING AND HEALTH PROFESSIONS

= a caring worldview

CC + CONHP STUDENTS… Graduate in four years with a closely coordinated curriculum and two academic advisors

YES, YOU CAN BE IN BOTH COLLEGES. Christ College – The Honors College is the place a future nurse, PA, or health care leader shares a table with a future engineer, music therapist, or author. Not only does this provide interesting interdisciplinary dialogue, it also allows students to build lasting relationships with students outside their major and explore elements of campus life outside of their college.

Christ College + College of Nursing and Health Professions students are thoughtful, considerate communicators and connected community members. Hearing from a variety of perspectives that are equally valued and explored allows students to remain open-minded and fully connected to fellow classmates, professors, and patients. And by encouraging thoughtful reflection and new ways of thinking, being part of Christ College allows Valpo College of Nursing and Health Professions students to have a well-rounded, global education.

Through the honors curriculum, Christ College + College of Nursing and Health Professions students participate in courses like Alternative Cultures of Health; Holy Healers; Interpretations: Self, Culture, Society; and Encountering Others.

“Ultimately, Christ College has helped me build confidence in myself as a person and as a future healthcare professional. I am able to talk with and relate to other people more easily.”

– Isabelle Dietrich ’24 Christ College Major: Nursing

“The philosophy, theology, and humanities topics worked in the Christ College curriculum bring a totally deeper meaning to our professions and what it means to be a caregiver. The lessons I have learned in Christ College are irreplaceable and I will be forever grateful for my professors and the things they have taught me.”

– Lauren Bartlett ’23, ’25 M.S. Christ College Major: Physician Assistant Studies
