Overview

The Family Nurse Practitioner program from Emory University has a strong community-based primary care focus. Students may complete the MSN program’s required 49 credit hours in four semesters or pursue the program part time. The FNP specialty is also available in the Post RN DNP format that will be completed in seven consecutive semesters.

Graduates are prepared to sit for the certification exam of the American Nurse Credentialing Center or the certification exam of the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners.

Clinical Experience

Graduates have more than 600 hours of directly supervised clinical practice. Emphasis is on the management of acute episodic problems and long term management of stable chronic diseases. More than 40 community-based sites and private practices provide students with a rich variety of primary health care experiences with clients of all ages. Students have the opportunity to do rotations in specialty areas such as endocrinology, cardiology, neurology, dermatology, orthopedics, and palliative care. Clinical sites include public health department clinics, hospital outpatient and satellite clinics, HMO clinics, community primary health care centers, Veteran’s Administration outpatient clinics, and health clinics for the homeless as well as private practice.

Career Opportunities

FNP graduates have an opportunity to work in either primary care or specialty areas. Recent graduates have found positions in family practice/internal medicine clinics, cardiology, neurology, orthopedics, women’s health, and pediatrics.
