Introduction

The faculty believe that graduate education degrees in nursing should be based on undergraduate general education and professional knowledge, attitudes and applied skills which evolve from the concept that the individual is a holistic being. As nursing curricula progress from undergraduate to graduate education, the focus of the scope of practice affords students the opportunity to study, in-depth, knowledge in selected areas of nursing as clinical nurse specialists, administrators, educators, consultants, nurse anesthetists and nurse practitioners; to refine clinical competencies; to develop an advanced clinical practice; and to utilize and conduct research. Graduate programs in nursing have the mission of educating qualified persons to make contributions to the improvement of nursing, health care and education to promote the advancement of the discipline of nursing.
