I am very pleased by the education I received at IUP. The master’s program fully prepared me for my current position. I had never even thought of working in a simulation center prior to attending IUP, and I absolutely love what I do now. The faculty was extremely knowledgeable and challenged me to broaden my view and understanding of our wonderful profession. As a wife, mother, and working nurse educator, I was enabled through this program to obtain my master’s degree while continuing to live my busy life.

Convenient, one day per week, only one class at a time; top-notch professors that are always there to help and answer questions.

The Monroeville campus allowed me to attend classes close to home, and the Friday afternoon/evening class offering really worked for me. The instructor/student ratio was small and really enhanced my learning and provided close attention. The cohort structure provided additional support and camaraderie as we progressed through the program together. I would highly recommend IUP’s graduate program to others.
