Overview

Nurse managers and leaders are involved in a healthcare facility's high-level operations, strategic planning, and long-term vision. Pursuing a Nurse Manager and Leader degree opens up opportunities of advancing into positions with more leadership responsibilities, such as directors, coordinators, and chief nursing officers.

At Colorado State University Pueblo , the curriculum for this Nurse Manager and Leader degree program is designed to help students create an individualized path with projects that are specific to their personal goals.

Our instructors (including full-time faculty, tenures, visiting professors and adjunct) work very closely together to make sure that students get the support they need.
