Doctor of Nursing Practice

Are you a nurse who is ready to be even more of a change agent? As you may know, nurse practitioners are in demand and enjoy a wide range of career options thanks in part to the expansion of Scope of Practice laws, changes to health care reform, and the ageing baby boom generation. The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that by 2026, the nurse practitioner field will grow by 31 per cent. The Rutgers School of Nursing–Camden Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program prepares nurses to become leaders in the healthcare field.

Rutgers School of Nursing–Camden students do public good, serve all of society, and make a compassionate difference. We believe health care is a basic right and social justice is the fundamental theme that informs our school's strategic direction and aligns us with Rutgers University–Camden's commitment to civic engagement, service, and advocacy.

At Rutgers–Camden, we educate excellent nurses prepared to lead change and advance health care across the homes, hospitals, and communities they serve. As Rutgers University members, our students enjoy all the benefits of a world-class academic experience in a tight-knit, friendly campus that offers individualized support at a competitive tuition rate.
