MSN Program Details

Since its inception, the graduate program has sought out excellent baccalaureate prepared nurses in pursuit of advanced nursing education. Not only does the Capstone College of Nursing offer the master of science in nursing in case management for rural populations, but we also offer dual degrees in conjunction with the Culverhouse College of Commerce and Business Administration (M.S.N./ M.A.). A new masters focus was launched in 2006 for the Clinical Nurse Leader, a nursing role designed to improve patient outcomes for the future of nursing. Graduates of the MSN program may sit for a number of case management certification exams or the clinical nurse leader certification exam with the appropriate clinical experience requirements. Students may choose to attend the MSN program on a part-time or full-time basis, and all classes may be completed fully via a distance learning modality. In addition, for the registered nurse who holds an associate degree in nursing and meets the required admission criteria, we offer an R.N. to B.S.N./M.S.N. track..
