Graduate Nursing

The purpose of the graduate nursing program is to prepare students for specializations in roles that are increasingly essential for health care systems. Emphasis on the development of the whole person is conveyed in the call to provide our graduates with a breadth and depth of knowledge, skills and values, while preparing them to continually further their education. The goals of the graduate program are to prepare graduates for specialization as adult nurse practitioners and administrators, and to develop leaders in the profession who are able to advance standards and create change for quality health care.
