College of Nursing Strategic Planning

Florida State University College of Nursing is embarking on a excited period of growth and transformation. With our 2017-2022 strategic plan nearing its end, we would like provide all stakeholders (students, staff, faculty, alumni, and partners of the college) an opportunity to provide honest and anonymous feedback. The survey is open-ended, and responses can be as short or long as desired.  We want to hear your dreams for FSU Nursing!
