L3 School of Nursing <strong>Graduate</strong> Program A. Objective Proposal for a New Option for the M.S. with a Major in Nursing Program To add a new option to M.S. degree program in nursing. This option is Nurse Educator. A.1 Revision Overview The School of Nursing’s current Master of Science degree program consists of a base program with four emphasis areas or a M.S. to PhD and four advanced practice nursing options. The Base Program emphasis areas are: Nurse Administrator, Nurse Educator, Clinical Trials Research and Community Health Policy and Management. The Advanced Practice Options include: Clinical Nurse Specialist, Family Nurse Practitioner, Adult Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner and Adult Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner. This revision is for the following: Add a new option: Nurse Educator (37-40 credits). (Simultaneously, a proposal to add a Nurse Administrator option has been submitted for review) This will replace the Nurse Educator emphasis within the base program. This new option will address a critical shortage in nursing, that is nurse educators. There are numerous studies that show well qualified applicants to basic nursing programs are denied admission due to a shortage of nursing faculty. The minimum level of education for a nurse educator is a master’s degree. B. List of New Courses None, all courses were previously approved for the nurse educator emphasis. Nurse Educator Option Specific Courses: 13 credits NURS 840: Nursing Education Theories and Strategies (3 credits) NURS 841: Assessment and Evaluation in Nursing Education (3 credits) NURS 842: Curriculum and Program Development in Nursing Education (3 credits) NURS 843: Synthesis and Application of the Nurse Educator Role (4 credits) C. Revised Version of The M.S. Degree Program with a Major in Nursing The new M.S. degree program will include: 1) Base Program: minimum of 30 credits in one of two emphasis areas (a proposal is simultaneously being submitted to add nurse administrator as an option): a. Clinical Trials Research (37-40 credits) b. Community Health Policy and Management (37-40 credits) OR c. M.S. to Ph.D. (minimum 43 credits) 2) CNS option (41-45 credits) Adult Gerontology or Adult Gerontology Educator
