Overview

If you hold a bachelor’s degree in Nursing at Towson University, are licensed as a registered nurse or are eligible for licensing in the State of Maryland, the master’s in nursing program can broaden your personal and professional options. Courses are offered on weekday evenings to give you the flexibility you need to balance family, work, and a graduate program. All courses are offered in a hybrid model with on-site classroom instruction one week followed by an online assignment the next week.

Population-Based Approach

Unlike other master’s programs that prepare nurse practitioners to assume many of the roles traditionally performed by medical doctors or clinical nurse specialists, community-based nurses help patients navigate the complexities of the health care system. They serve as case managers, coordinating patient care and medications from different specialists. Case managers see the whole picture rather than the limited perspective of a specialty area. Choose from two concentrations:

Nursing education prepares you for the classroom.The Nursing Education Concentration is for students who plan to teach in a nursing school or work in staff development or education in a health care agency. View the video to learn more.

Clinician-administrator transition prepares you for leadership positions in the field.
