Master of Science in Nursing
MSN regional consortium
The School of Nursing across the five IU regional campuses has developed a consortium model for the Nursing Administration, Education, and Family Nurse Practitioner tracks of the MSN program. Its courses use web-based and video technologies for maximum accessibility.
The program will offer fall and spring admission for the Education and Administration tracks and spring-only admission for the FNP track.
Labs and clinicals will be taught by the student’s campus of record. This allows for maximum community engagement, careful clinical placements, and supportive student management close to home.

My MSN degree in Nursing Education from IU Southeast helped me achieve my dream goal of teaching in higher education where I educate undergraduate students on the newest evidence-based nursing curriculum. It’s a rewarding career where I now get to pass on nursing knowledge that I have learned in my own career to eager and enthusiastic students. I now have the opportunity to develop new simulation activities to teach nursing concepts. I would recommend the graduate degrees in Nursing at Indiana University Regionals because of the experienced professors who are excited to teach future nursing administrators and educators the most current techniques in their respective fields.
