DNP in Population Health & Systems Leadership

The University of Washington School of Nursing has reopened the application for the Doctor of Nursing Practice in Population Health and Systems Leadership (PHSL) for the autumn 2022 start date.

The application is open now and will close on May 1, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. (PST). Nurses employed at least half time at DOH and DSHS can qualify for Tuition Exemption—a benefit for the DNP in PHSL that can cover up to ~1/2 the cost of this degree.

Because we have reopened the application for this track, we will be hosting 4 information sessions specific to our DNP PHSL track in the next few months. These sessions are for applicants interested in pursuing a DNP in Population Health and Systems Leadership. The sessions will be hosted by the faculty track lead, current DNP PHSL students, and Admission staff. They will address curriculum, program length, classes, job market, etc. All information sessions will be virtual using zoom.

Once you RSVP for a session you will receive a zoom link for the session.
