PhD in Nursing Science
On-Campus and Distance-Accessible PhD
The Indiana University School of Nursing PhD Program is delivered both on-campus and via distance-accessible technologies. Our program flexibility offers bachelor's and master’s prepared nurses across the country access to our PhD program through the use of in-person or online course options, video conferencing, and other emerging technologies to allow students to communicate and participate in discussions.
Students in the PhD will learn to:
- Master and synthesize knowledge from nursing and other disciplines to conduct original research, generate, and disseminate new ideas;
- Critique and integrate perspectives from diverse disciplines in the development of new knowledge for the discipline;
- Assume leadership in the conduct of culturally competent, ethical research and scholarship to improve nursing practice and health outcomes;
- Incorporate the components of scholarship, namely: research, teaching, mentoring, and service within your professional role;
- Prepare the future generation of nurses.
