RN-MS Curriculum Plan
The RN-MS track of study is designed for registered nurses who do not have a baccalaureate degree in nursing but possess the academic background, desire, and ability to pursue preparation at the master’s level. The curriculum combines elements of the BS program for RNs with the master’s program and streamlines progression toward the master’s degree. RN-MS students enter as undergraduate seniors, having earned at least 124 credits including all baccalaureate-level work. Forty-one additional credits are required for a Master of Science degree. Upon completion of the undergraduate common core/ADR courses (46 credits), undergraduate support courses (29 credits), nursing transition courses (33 credits), required nursing courses (12 credits), and the bachelor’s/master’s overlap courses (4 credits) as shown in the Outline of Course Work for RN-MS program, students will be awarded the baccalaureate degree with a major in nursing. A total of 124 credits is required. Outline of Course Work for RN-MS Track
