Specializations:

Welcome to the Walden University School of Nursing.

I want to congratulate you on making the very important decision to further your professional nursing education. Walden's online Master of Science program in Nursing is designed to prepare you as a scholar and leader in one of three specializations: Education, Leadership and Management, or Nursing Informatics.

The M.S. program in Nursing combines the high academic standards of an accredited university with the flexibility and convenience of distance learning. This blend of scholarship and information technology makes it possible for you to balance work, family, and education to obtain a respected degree and attain your goals of professional development and continued learning.

The need for skilled and knowledgeable nurses has never been greater. Against a backdrop of limited financial resources and personnel shortages in the health care industry, nurses must maintain their commitment to provide quality nursing care. At the same time, the continuing demand for highly trained health care professionals makes earning a higher degree critical to your continued success in nursing.

Why a Master’s Program?

Nurses who earn a master’s degree may enjoy better salaries, greater influence in the formulation of local and national health care policies, and the increased ability to improve patient and population health outcomes. You have the experience; now is the time to earn the degree.

Our enrollment advisors can help you find the information you need to apply, whether it’s about financial aid or having your transfer credit evaluated. They will also spend time with you discussing your educational and career goals. In addition, our Student Support Team is there to address any questions you may have about the online classroom and to provide technical support to ensure that you have a rewarding online experience throughout the program. 

For more information, please call an enrollment advisor at 1-866-492-5336 or complete the Request Information form. I look forward to sharing in your success at Walden University School of Nursing.
