The Master of Science in Nursing is traditionally designed to prepare registered nurses with baccalaureate degrees for advanced practice roles as nursing educators, administrators, family and community, and adult clinical roles, and credentialed school nurses. The curriculum emphasizes the systematic study of professional nursing practice and preparation for a leadership role. The program includes both classroom and field experiences in advanced clinical and role concepts and functional role preparations. The program is designed for nurses currently employed in hospitals, long-term care facilities, health agencies and educational institutions who require graduate preparation to qualify for present positions or desire advancement to positions of greater responsibility and complexity. Scheduling of program offerings will provide maximum flexibility and the opportunity for self-directed study.
