The University offers 57 bachelor's, 26 master's, two post masters certificates, and six doctorates. Year-to-year, an average 8,000 students are enrolled at Southern University, Baton Rouge. More African-American graduates, together, in engineering, technology, computer science, and mathematics have earned their degrees from Southern University than from any other university in America. The University's School of Nursing has ranked among the nation's best based on student passage of the N-CLEX, a nursing certification exam. The school is a hub for local, state, and national health outreach through its "Jag Mobile", a state-of-the art mobile health van that travels to inner city and rural areas. |
