Nursing students have access to other facilities and services that provide the cultural, social, and intellectual benefits you expect to find at a major university.
Public Health and Health Education students attending classes on the main campus in DeKalb have access to classrooms equipped with projection systems and interconnected computers with internet access. Most major classes are held in Wirtz Hall where facilities include advising and faculty offices, a computer classroom seating 40 students, a computer laboratory, a spacious light-filled student lounge area, and classrooms of various sizes. Many classes are delivered with BlackBoard support.
The Public Health Program offers classes at the NIU-Naperville Center. Classrooms are scheduled so that late afternoon, evening, and weekend classes are available.
