Degrees Offered
Health care is one of the most rapidly expanding and dynamic industries in our nation and the nursing programs offered by the Nursing Department at New York City College of Technology, CUNY (City Tech) are two of the college's most competitive offerings that help meet this trend.
The New York City College of Technology, CUNY (City Tech) offers two nursing programs: the Associate in Applied Science Degree Program (AAS) and the Bachelor of Science in Nursing Degree Program (BS) for Registered Nurses. Based on Watson's Theory of Caring, both programs emphasize the knowledge and skills required to be a Registered Professional Nurse (RN).
