ONEONTA, N.Y. — Hartwick College announced it will offer two new graduate nursing programs — a master’s degree in nursing education (MSN) and a certificate of advanced study in nursing education (CAS) — now that it has received approval from the state Department of Education.
The new programs will begin in May and are designed to be taken online with support from experienced faculty mentors. Applicants need to have either a bachelor’s degree in nursing or other bachelor’s degree, and at least one year of experience in the nursing field. These new offerings build on Hartwick’s undergraduate nursing program, which the college says is among the oldest nursing programs in the state.
Both graduate nursing programs focus on both education and leadership, preparing students to enter either academia or clinical practice. Graduates will be prepared to deliver and oversee the education of both nursing students and practicing nurses. The program will also help prepare nurses for certification in nursing education (CNE).
