Welcome to the Master of Nursing – Nurse Practitioner (MN-NP) program. Our primary health care program prepares nurse practitioners to diagnose and treat common illnesses and injuries across the lifespan in settings such as primary care offices or community health centres. The program does not, however, prepare nurse practitioners to work in acute care settings or to focus on a clinical specialty.
The Master of Nursing – Nurse Practitioner is a 33-credit online graduate program. You must complete at least 18 credits through Athabasca University. All courses are grouped study, with defined start and end dates. You can take up to 5 years to complete the program.
Please note: Athabasca University is currently unable to accept Nurse Practitioner applications from British Columbia due to the limited availability of clinical placements in the province. AU’s Faculty of Health Disciplines is working with the BC Ministry of Health to resolve this issue and plans to resume admission of BC-based students as soon as the practicum situation improves.
