This convenient, online program consists of 30 credit hours spread over six semesters. Students may choose from three unique concentrations: one for nurse practitioners (Advanced Practice Nursing) and two for nurse leaders (Leadership in Population Health and Leadership in Clinical and Academic Nursing Education). The leadership concentrations are open to students with current nursing licensure in Florida and/or one of the nursing compact states.
    The DNP program’s online format, with only three required visits to campus, allows students to continue their full-time careers. UT nursing faculty are respected researchers and practitioners and are committed to students’ educational mastery and career advancement.

    Leading Care. Creating Partnerships. Improving Health.
    The University of Tennessee College of Nursing is a catalyst for optimizing health through nurse-led care by integrating education, practice, research, and technology.
    The University of Tennessee College of Nursing offers two graduate degree options - the DNP and PhD. We also offer a range of graduate certificates. Concentrations in our BSN-DNP Program include Family Nurse Practitioner, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner (Primary Care and Dual Track-Primary/Acute Care), Nurse Anesthesia, and Nurse Executive Practice. The Post-Master’s DNP is a generalist program designed to broaden and extend the knowledge base of master’s-prepared nurses. Master’s-prepared DNP students may also add-on a Graduate Certificate to include a new specialty. Many of our programs boost a 100% first-time pass rate from the national certification boards.
    Our graduate programs are offered via a blended distance education model, with most coursework completed online and periodic on-site visits to the campus in Knoxville. We feature a unique distance education tuition model, which includes an out-of-state tuition waiver for students residing outside of the state of Tennessee.
