An online program for working professionals that  promotes relationships and community building

The 33 credit, online Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program is for nurses who want to work in healthcare administration, teach, or be a change agent for their workplace. The flexibility of our online schedule means you will have more time for the things you love while maintaining the program's sense of community and academic rigor.  

We bring together the highly respected aspects of programming at EMU and Goshen College (Indiana), a sister institution of Mennonite higher education. Through this collaborative online program, students will primarily work in their own time frame (asynchronous course work) with limited scheduled video conference sessions to allow for direct interaction with classmates and faculty on both campuses. Students may choose to receive their degree from either institution.

Embrace your calling to become a servant leader and bring wholeness and healing to individuals and communities through the lens of the program's values that include stewardship, human flourishing, sacred covenant, and peacemaking.

Why study with us

  • Cohort, relationship-focused study
  • Ethical, dignity-focused patient care
  • Leadership skills with heart

What makes our program unique?

Although rooted in the Anabaptist-Mennonite traditions of peacemaking, service, and community, the majority of EMU nursing students do not belong to the Mennonite Church USA. In fact, students enrolled across EMU nursing programs and beyond represent a wide range of faith traditions, including students who choose not to embrace a particular faith. Regardless of your beliefs, you are welcome here.

  • Online flexibility that doesn't sacrifice relationship and community building among students and faculty
  • Robust student support services designed to ensure your success and sense of belonging
  • Faculty practitioners with decades of clinical and administrative experience
  • A values-based approach to nursing that embraces holistic care for the individual and community
  • A systems-approach to health care delivery that encourages critical thinking and strategic vision for leaders
  • Deep-rooted institutional values that embrace conflict transformation and restorative justice practices
  • Respect and dignity for all persons--patients, families, colleagues, and the larger community
