Post-Master's Entry Option

The program design allows students to focus on the study of the theoretical and empirical basis for nursing actions provided to clients/patients in a variety of clinical settings, or research which focuses on the study of nursing systems or the theoretical and empirical basis for educational, administrative and/or policy-related nursing actions.  Individual research interests and career goals determine the emphasis area chosen.  Depth of knowledge in the emphasis area is developed through required course work and related clinical laboratory experience, selection of support electives, independent study and dissertation research.  Full time, part time and BSN-PhD options are available
