Metropolitan State University

As part of the College of Nursing and Health Sciences, the Department of Nursing is committed to academic and scholarly excellence and community partnerships. This focus is evident in our undergraduate and graduate programs that lead to lifelong careers in the nursing profession. The Department of Nursing's versatile programs and degree offerings span all levels of learning - bachelor's, master's and doctoral. We offer flexible options customized for registered nurses (RNs) as well as those who are not yet RNs. Classroom, hybrid, and on-line modalities, as well as principles of adult education, are utilized across our curricula.

The scope of the Department of Nursing offerings has significantly expanded since its initial accreditation, and our commitment to preparing graduates to enhance the health of underserved and diverse populations remains a core principle strongly embedded in our educational foundation. Our accomplished resident and community faculty continue to lead curricular and program innovations. As such, the Department of Nursing's current offerings reflect and consider the evolving needs of our communities and those of the professionals working in the rapidly changing health care systems.
