Course Overview

Recognizing that advanced practice preparation requires education at the doctoral level, this program provides intra- and interdisciplinary collaboration in both the didactic and practice settings.

The 36 credit program focuses on leadership in practice and offers two specialization tracks -clinical leadership and organizational leadership. The clinical leadership track prepares advanced practice nurses (APNs) for systems and population health practice. The organizational leadership track prepares graduates for leadership positions in organizational systems.   

Nurses with a Masters degree in another field may complete the DNP degree through a bridge program.
