    The Graduate School of Nursing offers academic programs in masters, post-masters and doctoral degrees, preparing students, professionals and advanced practice nurses for faculty, research and other nursing leadership positions.

    Our faculty are committed to student learning and actively practice in acute and community care settings and health care organizations.

    The GSN is one of only three nursing schools in New England based at an academic health sciences center, sharing campus resources and facilities with its clinical partner and medical school, as well as the Office Graduate Medical Education (GME). Such proximity allows us to be at the forefront of interprofessional education.
