USUHS Application:
The decision to pursue doctoral education in nursing is daunting. The degrees from which to choose (Doctor of Nursing Practice [DNP] Doctor of Philosophy [PhD]), the types of pedagogy from which to select (face to face, online, hybrid), as well as the focus areas, makes it difficult for prospective students to navigate the pathway to admission, progression and graduation. Faculty at The Daniel K. Inouye Graduate School of Nursing (DKI-GSN) are breaking down common barriers to advanced nursing education by offering a one-day workshop that provides key information to help nurses make informed decisions with confidence.
