Prepare to play a critical role in the future of family care.

Content

Family nurse practitioners (FNPs) provide care to patients of all life stages in collaboration with health care teams and develop relationships with entire family units. FNPs play a major role in today’s health care field. Their responsibilities have evolved alongside that of physicians, which means additional opportunities, autonomy, and authority. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that between 2019 and 2029, overall employment of nurse practitioners is projected to grow 52 percent, much faster than the average for all occupations.

Our MSN FNP program is designed to help future NPs enhance their knowledge, hone their skills, and meet the demand in providing quality advanced care to families — all without interrupting their career.

Family nurse practice is ranked No. 3 among the “Top 10 MSN Degree Specializations” by Nursejournal.org

AAMC projects that the U.S. will see a physician shortage of some 90,000 by 2025. Because an NP can help alleviate several duties that are similar to a physician’s, demand for more nurse practitioners is increasing. Join our online Master of Science in Nursing program to help fill this growing void.
