The PhD program offered by the University of Michigan School of Nursing prepares an exclusive cadre of nurse scientists capable of developing the new knowledge necessary to support and advance nursing practice. The program is predicated on a strong foundation of clinical expertise framed by a nursing perspective; education at the doctoral level builds upon and extends content acquired at the baccalaureate and master’s levels and emphasizes theory development and research skills. Our graduates are clinically proficient and have advanced preparation in nursing and related sciences, as well as in research methods and data analysis. In addition to offerings within the School of Nursing, the program draws on the curricular and research resources of other disciplines and institutes within the University - a leader in education and research - making the opportunity to study the inter-relationships of physiological, psychological, and socio-cultural variables, alone or in combination, as they influence health outcomes a great strength of U-M's doctoral program. Ultimately, building off the pedagogy of all U-M School of Nursing programs, the doctoral program prepares nurses who contribute to the field of nursing through active research, advanced practice, and progressive leadership in education, professional nursing organizations, health care systems, and other health related enterprises. |
