Ассоциированная степень в медицинской сестринской практике

APU seeks to develop and offer programming that meets the healthcare workforce needs of Alaska. The Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) program offers the foundational skills needed to provide culturally safe, holistic care for Alaska Natives, Indigenous peoples, and other under-served populations across Alaska.

The ADN program at APU delivers relevant coursework with real-world projects and clinical placements. Our students are prepared for and supported in meeting their educational, professional, and community-driven goals through our unique programming.

The Associate Degree in Nursing program follows a cohort model that starts once a year in the Fall semester. Students admitted to the Nursing program can expect to complete the program in three semesters across 18 months, based on full-time enrollment.

Students are at the centre of all we do here at Alaska Pacific University. Representing the aspirations and collective wisdom of our community, APU delivers an education that is collaborative, innovative, and transformational. Encouraging student development, supporting community engagement, and honouring Alaska’s Indigenous heritage, APU seeks to cultivate a unique and powerful educational experience.

Under the direction of Peter Gordon Gould, an Unangax from the village of Unga, Alaska Methodist University (AMU) offered its first classes in 1960. AMU was renamed in 1978 to Alaska Pacific University (APU) but remained a Methodist-affiliated institution. It retains its commitment to its heritage of Alaska Native education while emphasising rigorous academics and challenging fieldwork in the arts and sciences.
