Dual MSN Master of Science in Nursing and Master of Science in Management or Master of Business Administration

Students choosing the executive concentration may wish to earn a dual degree.  There are two options; a Master of Science in Nursing Leadership (MSN) and a Master of Science in Management (MSM) with the Health Care Administration (HCA) focus; or a Master of Science in Nursing Leadership (MSN) and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) with the Health Care Administration (HCA) focus.

香港伦理, progression, and graduation requirements are a coordinated effort between the Colleges of Health Professions and the College of Business.  Students should initially contact the MSN Leadership program chair for entry into these options and pre-program course sequencing.  The dual degree program is 51 credits; however, the MSN/MBA program has specific prerequisite requirements.  Students will need to make an appointment with the College of Business at (302) 356-2488 to review their transcripts to determine if any pre-requisites were met in undergraduate coursework, however, students remain under the College of Health Professions and Natural Sciences' graduate program chair for advisement.
