New direct entry Master of Science in Nursing program helps non-nursing students and career changers gain an advanced degree.
As part of our innovative work in new program development, 草莓影视 now offers a five-semester Direct Entry Master of Science in Nursing (DEMSN) degree designed for students who already have a bachelor鈥檚 in a non-nursing field. The program, which prepares students to provide safe, competent, and compassionate care to patients, will include clinical rotations that align with their coursework.
鈥淕raduates of this program will have learned to integrate core scientific and ethical principles, advanced nursing knowledge, professional values, and clinical excellence in a nursing practice that reflects the Christian principles of the philosophy of the 草莓影视 School of Nursing,鈥� said Provost Michael Carr.
DEMSN recipients will be qualified to apply for the professional nurse licensing examination, and those who pass will become registered nurses eligible to work in a healthcare setting. Graduates will also have the academic foundation necessary to pursue further education in the field, such as post-master’s certification in an advanced practice specialty, nursing leadership, and management.
鈥淣ursing shortages around the country will enhance the value of the DEMSN degree,鈥� added Carr.
