Nursing Management: The MSN/MPA
Dual Degree
In conjunction with the Kent School of
Nursing, the MPA program offers a dual degree program, the MSN/MPA, for
nurses already holding the BSN and interested in pursuing careers in
health care management either in the public or nonprofit sector. The
MSN/MPA degree effectively reduces the total number of credits
obtaining each degree individually would require. For specific course
