The M.S.N./M.B.A. dual degree combines graduate programs from the CCNE-accredited School of Nursing and AACSB-accredited School of Business into a unique online combined curriculum. Curriculum includes nursing leadership and management as well as core business education including finance and accounting and analytical models. The combined 51-credit curriculum, taught online in 8-week accelerated format, allows students to earn two degrees with 15 fewer credits than would be required taking both graduate programs individually.

The Bachelor of Science in Nursing, the Master of Science in Nursing and the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) programs in the School of Nursing, Education and Human Studies are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education.
