PHD NURS - Nursing (PhD)

The PhD in Nursing program provides a strong foundation in theoretical and methodological content essential for the scholarly investigation of health care problems encountered in the practice of nursing. The program is designed to develop nurse researchers to generate and translate knowledge toward improving the health of individuals, families, communities, and populations through the conduct of biologic, physiologic, or experiential research in health and illness. The program of study and research are foundational to understanding client-centered health problems and developing the theoretical and experiential foundation necessary to initiate and coordinate clinical outcomes research. UMMC offers entry points to the PhD program for post-BSN, post-MSN, and post-DNP applicants. Individuals seeking admission to the PhD in Nursing program must meet the general admission requirements and technical standards for admission for the School of Graduate Studies (SGSHS), as well as those determined by the School of Nursing.
