Harden named dean of School of Nursing

Union University in November named Kelly Harden as dean of its School of Nursing.

Harden, formerly the associate dean of graduate programs in the Union School of Nursing and chair of the Doctor of Nursing Practice program, joined the Union faculty in 2006 as assistant professor of nursing.

“I am humbled and honored by this appointment,” Harden said. “The School of Nursing at Union University has a rich tradition of educating nurses who embody our core values of excellence-driven, Christ-centered, people-focused and future-directed.”

Harden said she looks forward to working with the Union faculty and staff to find new ways to equip graduates to meet complex and changing healthcare needs locally, nationally and globally.

“We will continue to seek God’s direction in all we do as we strive to serve him through the gifts he has bestowed upon us,” she said.
