At UNCP, our DNP program is designed for nurses with an earned MSN seeking a terminal degree in nursing practice. DNP-prepared nurses are well-equipped to fully implement nursing research into clinical practice to reduce healthcare costs, improve patient outcomes, and increase patient satisfaction. The DNP in Population Health focuses on the health and well-being of a group of people by implementing interventions to address chronic care management, quality and safety, public health, and health policy.
