Welcome

Designed for the bachelor's-prepared RN, our Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program allows you to earn your MSN while continuing to work in your home community. Full-time students complete the program in two years. Part-time options are also available.

An advanced degree opens many rewarding career options for RNs. We offer two tracks, Leadership and Management and Clinical Nurse Leader.

  (for CNL track students only)
