The Graduate School of Nursing was established in March 2002 to prepare advanced practice nurses to meet the growing demand for healthcare services driven by advancements in technology and demographic and societal changes. The Master’s program aims to educate nurses to integrate advanced knowledge and skills in specialized nursing fields enabling them to practice independently as advanced practice nurses. Our graduates are equipped to restore, maintain, and promote their patients' health while also taking on leadership roles in the advancement of nursing practice and management.
