College of Nursing

My research projects have helped me practice evidence-based nursing. This is a really important aspect of nursing, since the field is always evolving and growing, it’s a lifelong commitment to learning.

PNW’s DNP program gave me a deeper understanding of the systems we work in, not just the clinical side. I now understand why decisions are made, how organizations run and the bigger picture behind organizational changes.

The professors didn’t just teach, they guided, challenged and helped me see the full picture of what nursing really is across so many specialties.

Felipe Oria, ’25, Nursing

PNW’s DNP program taught me exactly how to search for evidence, evaluate the reliability of research and interpret complex data with confidence. Being able to extract meaningful data and apply it to transform practice and improve care is invaluable.

What set this program apart from others was that it wasn’t just about learning theory, it was about applying it. It connected my nursing experience and theory to real practice – suddenly everything clicked.

PNW was the college that fit me. I love how close everyone is on campus. The smaller class sizes were perfect for me to learn.

Make connections and use your resources... If you make connections or get involved in a committee or club, you can make a group of friends and find like-minded people.

Allison Arnold, ’24, Nursing

The program is very well formulated and constructed. Everything I’ve learned from the start has been a solid base that I’ve been able to build upon.
