master of science in nursing

The mission of the Aspen University School of Nursing is to enhance the health and quality of life for individuals, families, and communities at the local, state, and national levels through excellence in teaching, scholarship, and practice. The Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program prepares nurses to assume leadership roles in management, education, and clinical practice within a diverse society and across a spectrum of healthcare settings.

Theory courses combine the basic foundation of traditional education in a convenient distance-learning format, enabling practicing nurses to meet their academic, professional, and personal goals. Practicum courses are performed in a clinical setting, allowing students to apply learned concepts under the direct supervision of a preceptor. Aspen University currently offers an MSN degree in two different specialties: nursing administration and management, and nursing education.
