Program Information

Degree Offered

PhD Program in the School of Nursing

Format: Campus

Program Description:

The DUSON Ph.D. Program will prepare nurse scientists to assume roles primarily in academic and research settings. Our approach is to admit a small number of highly qualified applicants and work with them in a series of mentored experiences, supported by formal course work, to (a) ensure socialization to the role of research scientist; (b) ensure significant knowledge and skill acquisition for launching a successful program of research post doctorate; and(c) to prepare for an entry level teaching role in an academic setting.
