DNP to Ph.D.
We have developed an accelerated Ph.D. program (only 33 credits) for those individuals who already have their DNP. If you have found that many tenure-track positions at universities have been closed to you, or that research is really where you want to be, then your pathway for a Ph.D for DNPs is the way to go.
