MSN Philosophy

The MSN program philosophy in the School of Nursing is guided by the mission of ǿ and College of Health & Human Services and is grounded in the Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education, QSEN, and the Future of Nursing Report. The MSN program prepares the graduate to be a steward of the discipline. Masters’ education starts from the student’s practice experience, advances through individualized, student-centered and transformational opportunities, and culminates in the graduate assuming the nurse expert role. Masters learning includes opportunities for the improvement of health outcomes across diverse populations utilizing the best evidence and clinical judgement. Students and faculty promote academic excellence, professionalism, integrity, and inclusiveness within the advanced nursing community through shared responsibility, interprofessional collaboration, teamwork, and mentoring relationships. This individualized student- centered learning takes place in a scholarly community grounded in standards for rigor, the nursing imperative of caring, and a plurality of voices.
