The Missouri State University is conducting this needs assessment for a proposed Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree program. The practice doctorate has an emphasis on leadership and practice in the community. This doctorate addresses the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) mandate that all advance practice nurses graduating by 2015 be prepared at the doctoral level.
Missouri State University is anticipating 2 entry points into the DNP - direct entry from the BSN and also as a post-MSN program. Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey. This survey should only take 10 minutes of your time.
