ABOUT MU's PROGRAM

Interested in becoming an advanced practice nurse (APN)? Marymount’s Master of Science in Nursing with a Family Nurse Practitioner concentration can provide great career value, enhancing one’s knowledge and skill, while boosting earnings potential. The demand for advanced practice nurses is increasing as experienced nurses leave the profession and health care needs of an aging population escalate.


Program Goals
The program builds on the baccalaureate degree in Nursing and integrates three core content areas: a graduate nursing core, an advanced practice nursing core, and specialty nursing content.
