The Master of Science in Nursing program is designed to prepare and help professional nurse leaders fulfill their advanced practice nursing roles as family nurse practitioners, adult-gerontology nurse practitioners, and nurse educators. Graduates will reflect the critical thinking and professional skills needed for future nurse leaders in both the clinical as well as the academic areas. Graduate level scholarly inquiry based on theoretically or clinically directed research will provide the foundation for fulfillment of the professional standards and core competencies of advanced practice nursing.
