University of Central Florida

The Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing Ph.D. Program is designed to prepare nurse scientists to assume positions as nursing faculty members, leaders in the application of innovative technologies to nursing education and clinical care, executive leaders in health-care systems and scientists who contribute to the body of nursing knowledge through their research.

An example is the University of Central Florida’s doctoral program, which has three areas of focus: 1) vulnerable populations within Florida’s multicultural environment; 2) application of innovative technologies to nursing education and clinical care; and 3) health-care systems and policy. According to the university, the Doctor of Nursing Practice DNP Program is designed to prepare expert nurse clinicians and scholars with in-depth clinical expertise for leadership roles in a specialized area of advanced practice. Employment opportunities for graduates will include clinical education, management, practice, clinical outcomes research and administration.
