Kent State nursing students are eager to learn from passionate, caring and engaged health care professionals.
Share your knowledge and skills with students who will make the most of learning opportunities in clinical areas. Education is our students' top priority and they will adjust their schedule to match your availability – including nights and swing shifts. They are prompt, reliable and will dress and act in a professional manner. They understand the course objectives and expectations, and will ask questions and request your help as needed.
Every student is assigned a preceptor along with a faculty member for support and guidance. Our faculty recognize the preceptor as the clinical expert and support the preceptor with an individualized education plan for each student. Faculty value the preceptor's feedback on the student’s progress as well as an evaluation at the end of the semester, which becomes a part of the student’s record.
