Nursing was an integral part of the Parker Memorial Hospital Training School, which served as the University of Missouri’s first hospital in 1901. The nursing program was officially established in 1920 and became its own academic unit in 1973. In 1994, the nursing program was officially named the Charles and Josephine (Josie) Smith Sinclair School of Nursing. Today, students benefit from simulation labs and equipment to get hands-on experience before working alongside professional nurses.
