Program Masters Direct Entry za ne-medicinske stručnjake

The Masters Direct Entry (MDE) Program is a full-time accelerated nursing program for non-nurse college graduates who wish to become registered nurses (RNs). The MDE program prepares students in the provision of evidence-based nursing care with an emphasis on care coordination and religious/cultural care to patients along the wellness/illness continuum and across all care settings.

The curriculum provides basic nursing knowledge and practice expertise enhanced with master’s course work in advanced assessment, advanced pharmacology, advanced pathophysiology, and global health. Students complete over 1,000 clinical hours in small group clinical settings in areas such as labor and delivery, medical-surgical, pediatrics, community health, and psychiatric-mental health. The MDE program offers a unique six-week integration experience in which students work one-on-one with an RN in New York or participate in one of many global integration sites.

As a leader in graduate nursing education for more than a century, Columbia University School of Nursing prepares expert nurse clinicians and researchers to improve the health of individuals, families, and communities in the United States and around the world. Our emphasis on clinical practice, the creation of new knowledge, and leadership in health policy place Columbia Nursing at the forefront of nursing excellence.

We value the pursuit of excellence in nursing by supporting academic integrity and rigor and by encouraging free and open dialogue through interdisciplinary and mutual support. We value a culture of inclusion by embracing multicultural perspectives among faculty, students, and staff and by upholding the principles of health equity, which embrace respect for racial, gender, and cultural diversity in the care of patients, families, and the community.
