Additional information:

Currently, within our DNP Program, we have a Post Master\'s concentration (Dr. Joanie Jackson coordinates the Post Master\'s concentration) and a Nursing Administration concentration (with the option to obtain an MBA). By January 2022, we will be offering a BSN to DNP for Nurse Anesthesia concentration also. A concentration for BSN to DNP for Nurse Practitioners (Family and Acute Care Gero) is also being developed with offerings expected in Fall of 2022. Once both Anesthesia and NP concentrations are underway, we will no longer offer Master\'s level degrees.
