Description:

The MN program cultivates knowledge and skills that support learners to probe meaningful experiences in their professional lives and to analyze critical issues in health systems. Coursework exposes students to diverse schools of thought and scholarship; complex health system influences on nursing practice and health outcomes; approaches to knowledge development, synthesis, and translation; and using nursing knowledge to improve healthcare delivery, promote health, and reduce health inequity. In the process, learners are empowered to find their own voice, articulate well-informed perspectives to diverse audiences, and actively shape the systems in which they participate and lead.
