BACKGROUND
Winston-Salem
State
University
was founded as the
Slater
Industrial
Academy
on September 28, 1892. It began in a one-room frame structure with 25
pupils and one teacher. In 1895, the school was recognized by the state
of
North Carolina
, and in 1897 the Slater Industrial and
State
Normal School
chartered it. From the beginning, the school has insisted upon the vital
importance of elementary school teachers in any program of building an
improved citizenship. On October 30, 1971, the General Assembly
reorganized higher education in
North Carolina
, and on July 1, 1972, Winston-Salem State University (WSSU) became one
of 16 constituent institutions of The University of North Carolina,
subject to the control of a Board of Governors.
HEALTH
RELATED ACADEMIC PROGRAMS
The
University’s
Nursing
School
was established in 1953, which award graduates the degree of Bachelor of
Science. The basic nursing program covers four years of study with equal
emphasis on academic and professional education.
ACADEMIC
PROGRAMS
The
University offers certificate, bachelors, and Masters degrees.
Winston-Salem
State
University
is proud to offer an evening Master of Business Administration program
beginning in August 2002. The MBA program will play a significant role
in the university’s goal of providing well-trained and highly
motivated future business leaders. In addition, the MBA program will
meet a pressing need for a state-sponsored MBA program in the Western
Piedmont Region.
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
The
primary purpose of graduate studies at
Winston-Salem
State
University
is to provide qualified students with a quality education required for
the full development of scholarly and professional capacities at the
