About

Understand the discovery, integration, application and dissemination of knowledge delimited by rigor and ethical integrity.

The Master of Science in Nursing (MScN) program produces graduates who have the knowledge, values, attitudes and competencies reflecting the philosophy, nature and scope of nursing of diverse populations in small urban, northern rural, and remote communities. The learner will develop a richer understanding of the discipline of nursing and its relationship to the context of health care service delivery and policy issues. The program also broadens learners' understanding of nursing by encouraging them to engage with scholars from other departments and disciplines as well as those with other professional experiences.

All streams in the MScN program are delivered remotely, designed for mature learners who do not reside in Sudbury. There are onsite requirements for the Nurse Practitioner program only.
Laurentian University offers 4 masters programs in French and in English that focus on research or clinical practice. All program outcomes are informed by the Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing's four guiding principles for masters nursing education:

Programs provide a comprehensive and substantive understanding of nursing knowledge, and a critical awareness of complex problems and/or new insights.
Programs foster the ability to contribute to nursing knowledge through systematic inquiry, knowledge development, translation, and scholarship.
Programs provide practice-based learning experiences to foster the use of the best available evidence, theories, and expertise in an advanced nursing role.
Programs prepare students to use advanced communication, collaboration and consultation abilities to participate and lead in diverse contexts.
