The Master of Science in Nursing is designed to prepare registered nurses with baccalaureate degrees for roles as
nursing administrators, nursing educators, family nurse practitioners and credentialed school nurses. The curriculum
emphasizes the systematic study of professional nursing practice and preparation for a leadership role. The program
is designed for nurses currently employed in hospitals, long-term care facilities, health agencies and educational
institutions who require graduate preparation to qualify for present positions or desire advancement to positions
of greater responsibility and complexity. Scheduling of program offerings will provide maximum flexibility and the
opportunity for self-directed study. Students typically begin the program with 6-9 units of the core courses and
proceed into the track of their choice. Track options include: nursing education, advanced clinical role, nursing
administration, school nursing, and family nurse practitioner (in cooperation with the University of California, Davis).
