Coming This Fall: Masters of Science in Nursing Administration - Online
The Master of Science in Nursing Administration prepares registered nurses as administrators and leaders to assume the advanced practice nurse role within an evolving and global healthcare system. Caring for individuals with highly complex health issues requires registered nurses to be educated to provide evidence-based, patient-centered care focusing on health promotion and restoration. The program emphasizes the leadership, administrative, and management skills necessary to coordinate comprehensive care, collaborate with an interdisciplinary healthcare team, and implement strategies that improve the healthcare environment. Concepts related to health promotion, aging, cultural and ethnic diversity, and health policy provide foundational information essential to implementing health management across the age continuum and improved health outcomes of diverse populations. The curriculum for this graduate program uniquely integrates several courses related to older adults with the functional role of nurse administrator.
All applications must be received by May 15th for Fall 2025 and October 15th for Spring 2026
