UB School of Nursing offers the only DNP program in NYS with direct entry for new BS grads and distance-learning format for post-MS
The University at Buffalo School of Nursing is addressing the need for more registered nurses with advanced degrees by making the Doctor of Nursing Practice degree (DNP) more accessible to nurses in Western New York and New York State in three distinct ways.
The school is launching a "Go the Distance with UB!" campaign to advertise their program, which offers both the DNP and PhD via distance learning to RNs with a master's degree.
Mary Carey, PhD, RN, CNS, FAHA has been named the "2012 Nurse of Distinction" for District I of the New York State Nurses Association and the Buffalo News.
This is the 19th year that District I of the New York State Nurses Association and The Buffalo News have co-sponsored the Nurse of Distinction Award. The award honors a RN who has made outstanding contributions to the nursing profession, has demonstrated leadership that provides a role model to inspire other nurses to improve, and participates in activities that foster a positive public image of nursing as a profession.
Margaret (Meg) McCabe, DNSc, PNP has an extremely busy professional and personal life filled with 3 jobs, 4 children and a husband, but she has found balance as evidenced by her success in both areas. Her nursing career has taken her from Buffalo to Chicago to NYC with a short stop in Rural Michigan settling in Boston, Massachusetts and her journey illustrates that one never knows where their career path will lead.
The University at Buffalo is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE). The UB School of Nursing Undergraduate and Graduate Nursing Programs are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE).
