Why Study Nursing at Edinboro University?
Edinboro University's career-ladder approach prepares the highest quality professional
nurses at the baccalaureate, master's and doctoral levels to meet the local and global
holistic health-care needs of individuals, families and communities.
Professional nursing courses and clinical learning experiences teach students to treat
human responses to health and illness through the application of scientific knowledge.
A highly experienced faculty fosters personal development, critical thinking, ethical
decision-making, the appreciation of values and cultures, the acquisition of domain-specific
nursing knowledge, and socialization into the roles of the professional and advanced
practice nurse.
Through a joint program with Clarion University's Department of Nursing, students
can earn a Master of Nursing Science-Family Nurse Practitioner (MSN-FNP) degree or
pursue an online post-master's program that results in a Doctor of Nursing Practice
(DNP).
