About the DNP
The Doctor of Nursing Practice program is proudly offered as a collaborative program through a consortium of four universities:
- Minnesota State University, Mankato
- Minnesota State University, Moorhead
- Winona State University
- Metropolitan State University
This new degree program is for nurses with a master's degree in nursing who wish to gain the advanced clinical, organizational, economic, and leadership competencies necessary in an increasingly complex health care environment.
Graduates of Metropolitan State's DNP program will be able to influence health care in many ways by:
- Providing leadership on the front lines of their profession
- Evaluating clinical outcomes more effectively through the use of evidence-based practice tools
- Identifying and managing the health care needs of special populations
- Using technology and information systems to transform health care systems
